About this deal

RapidRacerProducts Ltd accepts no liability for any damage or injury caused due to improper fitting or use of our products We offer the longer MAX PROTECTION version to be the best protection in the world, this version is 68mm longer at the rear. No other mudguard offers more protection MATERIAL The ProGuard range of mudguards have a matte textured finish with gloss highlights on the logos and centre strip. The underside features a smooth lightly polished finish for better mud flow.

The ProGuard from RRP is a rigid polypropylene guard that comes in two sizes – standard and maximum. The standard is pretty big and offers plenty of protection, but the Max is 21mm longer at the front and 68mm longer at the rear so really ups the ante. It has a three-point fixing via the brace and fork lowers. There are 24 crown holes for zip-ties allowing it to accommodate a wide range of brace sizes and shapes and it’s compatible with 26in, 27.5in and 29in forks and (RRP claims) tyres up to three inches in diameter. The extended side mouldings also help protect the fork seals. To fit the Pro Guard, you do have to punch out some tiny holes, which is okay but there is a bit of trial and error getting it set to the correct angle. The Max size can also move a bit when riding hard and when sending it off a drop there was often a hard crunch as some part of the guard bottomed out on the fork/tyre. That said, if you want to ride 60mph through a peat bog and stay dry, this is the guard we’d recommend – dirt doesn’t get in your eyes, on your clothes, no matter how wet it is or how fast you’re going. Easily the best guard on test. IMPORTANT: You must apply the rubber adhesive side pads to the recess on the mudguard side wings, they protect your fork legs and provide vital stability and resonance damping INSPECT BEFORE YOU RIDE: DO NOT USE IF DAMAGED IN ANY WAY AS CONTINUED USE MAY LEAD TO FAILURE OR INJURYSelect the correct bolts for your fork (details below) and run these into the threads WITHOUT the mudguard which will 'PRIME' and clean the threads before fitting, this part is important (YOU MAY NEED TO RE-TAP THE THREADS IF DEBRIS / PAINT IS LEFT IN THE THREADS FROM THE MANUFACTURE OF THE FORKS) BOLTS: FOX = M3 (2 bolts) | OHLINS = M4 (3 bolts) | SR SUNTOUR = M6 ( *1 bolt) Slots and holes for easy installation with cable ties (included) or Velcro straps (sold separately) COMPATIBILITY WHEELS: 26” 27.5” 29” TYRES: up to a 3” tyre FORKS: All forks including Boost forks (except reverse arch) TRAVEL: Any travel The RRP ProGuard is an amazing front mudguard for mountain bikes offering unmatched protection from mud and spray, it’s perfect for Enduro or Downhill racers and essential for the weekend warrior looking for the very best protection. Our design intent was to increase the tyre clearance and improve the mud clogging issues seen with this type of mudguard. This is another one of those, “why didn’t they think of that sooner” scenarios and I’m still confused why most suspension manufacturers didn’t a) work with someone to make one for their product or b) make one themselves. Designing suspension is the focus but why not make use of what’s already available to provide more for your customers?

Then feed cable ties through teh sames holes from the rear to the front (you must use min 5 cable ties to ensure the guard is secure) I have been using the RRP ProGuard on a few mountain bikes for several months. The performance has been excellent, with a vast improvement in the amount of spray and mud that comes off the front wheel reaching the face and body with the most noticeable area when riding at higher speeds where mud can spray out in front, which you would normally ride into it. Our widely acclaimed Seal Shield has made it to the PROGUARD as a means of offering greater protection for your seals from high velocity mud and spray, the Seal Shield section also provides additional strength and rigidity to the rear reducing flex MAX PROTECTION VERSIONDUE TO THE CURRENT HIGH DEMAND, DELIVERY TIME FOR BIKES IS 7-10 DAYS.
