I want to know what people use to protect all the moving parts for their full sussers. Ive got a Felt with the equilink system so theres a fair bit to protect. I want to try and minimise the amount of crud that gets flung into all the pivot points and the shock.
Any ideas/suggestions......

Muckynutz bender fender can be used at the back a la specialized shock guard..
Zefal no mud attaches to the chainstays and moves with the suspension..

For the main pivot a fender bender diy style jobbie works and is almost invisible.

#edit - I think it works but honestly I dont know for sure if it makes any real difference though. I'm more worried about the cak thrown up on my back / seat etc. So I've got a modified decathlon on the seat stays. And boy, it's ugly.

Thanks for the suggestions. Ive already got a fender bender xl but cant see how it will be that effective as it seems to sit a bit too low. Dont fancy putting anything on it that will make it look fugly, I already do a good enough job of that myself...

x2 silicone spray.

Not ideal as it will eventually wear off but it will help to shed the muck.
