My Ohlins RXF 29 forks have direct mount threaded holes in the fork arch but according to Ohlins and anyone else I have asked no one makes a direct mount mud guard for them.

Why both engineering them in?

Is this just a d1ck tease from Ohilns or an I missing something?

Reading this back its the worst rant ever 🙂

Rumour is/was they were going to make them.

Don't see it as a problem scottfitz, see it as an opportunity and make them yourself!

OK you might only sell a dozen, but it's clearly a gap in the market.

It's certainly a gap in the fork at least.

Also I'd change your tyre if I was you scottfitz, the one in that photo looks in poor condition...

Fox36 have similar holes - weren't they there for ages before someone (Syncros) decided to make a mudguard that fitted?
