If you have fox forks (or other compatible forks) then get a standard size RRP ProGuard Bolt On at the front:

The only thing that'll keep you (mostly) clean is a large rear Mudhugger:

it looks god awful, but it works

This one seems good to. Haven't got it myself though

I have both front and rear but have only mounted the front for now, realy like the look of the front comming form mudhugger. What I like about the rear (obviously not the looks :sick:) is that you can take it off with the velcro straps.

+1 for the RRP Proguard, literally all the guys I ride with use them, the full sus riders are using Mudhuggers on the back, hardtail riders are all using Topeak Defenders on the back

I bought the Mud Huggers front and rear fitted them and rode a couple of times then took the rear one off, They do work well but the bike looks ugly as sin with the large guard on the back, I would rather put up with the mud and clean the bike down when I'm finished

So I rode the SKS front guard for about 250km and noticed something today it is very quiet when stones hit it even quiter than the marshguard I use in summer

E bikes look hideous already. Stop worrying about it looking "cool" and fit a proper front mudguard that actually stops mud being flung in your eyes every time you get up to a decent speed in the wet.
RRP long, CrudXL or mudhugger long all work brilliantly.
