Loving the fat tyres on the Krampus, but ye gods do they spray a lot of mud everywhere! My existing crud catchers are woefully inadequate.
I imagine a full fat would be even worse.

Tried to find some of the PDW Dave's Mud shovels, but they're out of stock everywhere.
So what are people using in the current moist weather?

I might have to go away and make some of my own. I can guarantee they'll be ugly 😆

Daves mud shovels are due back soon.

If you go to my site you can set up a stock alert so you get an email when they come back in.

Or email me and I will set up a back order for you.

For real foul conditions and long days, then motorbike trial guards are the go. I use them on my fatbike.

I reckon a front would do the job for the Krampus.

Easy to modify with a heatgun or hairdryer.

Well, as a Technology teacher I decided that I should try and make my own 😆
1st and 2nd prototypes are finished - a clunky correx one, and a quickly mocked up vacuum formed one. I'm going to ride them both this weekend (good weather for it!) and if the concept works then I'll have some proper ones made up.
Photos to follow.....
