Acquired a pair of MudHugger 29er rear guards from the guys at www.themudhugger.co.uk
and after fitting one to the back of the Puffin where it is rock solid and looks like it will do the job of keeping my arse cleanish

I got to thinking could it fit on a set of Bluto`s
Answer Yes had to open the ziptie holes a tad to take larger ties and apply a little heat to splay the sides ot a bit
and bingo lots of slop protection

Testing em tomorrow in the thawing slop
Why not just use a front Mudhugger...
Cos the front mudhugger is too short and does not keep any off your legs those tyres can throw a huge amount of sh1t on to you and your bike
Does it not have horrendous toe overlap?
I kind of failed to notice it was a fattie..
We cut a rear one down a bit as the std length catches on trail obstacles, does the job just as well, needs something out front to stop "blow back" though
Good point RD any pics to show how much you have trimmed off
Could a 26" one be used without trimming?

Cheers Rocketdog I have chopped mine off just above the MH logo for starters
29er raceguard?
[quote=cynic-al ]29er raceguard?
Also work fine on the rear, though not being as close to the seat stays there's a bit more crap gets through. I guess you might be able to mod one for the front?
Is the 29er version of these out yet? 😀

I have a 29er raceguard fitted to my other bike and it is no way as good as the Mudhugger
Two bikes on the same days ride
