To each their own. I'd spend $100 on protection to avoid a mechanical. If it looks cool, even better. We already spent 5k+ depending on the model you have haha.
ah I get it. However, I'm not designing a rear tire mudguard to protect the rider from overspray. My design is mainly to avoid damaging the rear triangle pivot point. It's worked great for 4 years now.
Thanks! yea that's what I was hoping for with the next iteration. Something a little more organic shaped that flows with the shape of the frame. Unfortunately the way the frame is designed it kind of creates a shelf.
Hi Everyone,
First time poster here, but I've been around for a while. I actually created the mudguard on Shapeways that I've seen a lot of people post up. Since Shapeways recently closed their doors, I'm currently shopping for a new printer, which is why I figured I'd revamp the previous...
Hi, I was wondering if you could shoot me a dm? I am the original owner/designer of the trek mudguard posted in the original post from shape ways I'd be interested to hear who asked you to remove your design since I created the original and everyone tried to copy it.
