Holdfast Mountain Bike Mud Guard

Short Product Summary

This Holdfast mud guard attaches to your fork to keep mud, water and trail debris off your face while you ride. It's built to suit most mountain bike forks, covering 26", 27.5" and 29" wheel sizes, and works across XC, trail and enduro setups. It mounts with four cable ties, sold separately.

Why This Product

Riding wet, clay-heavy trails without protection can leave a rider caked in mud in a matter of minutes, and grit thrown up off the front wheel stings and blurs your vision at speed. A guard mounted low on the fork intercepts that spray before it reaches your face, so you can keep riding without wiping your eyes every few minutes.

Key Features

• Fork-mounted design – sits low on the fork to intercept spray before it reaches the rider
• Universal fork fit – compatible with most mountain bike fork configurations
• Covers 26", 27.5" and 29" wheels – suits XC, trail and enduro setups across common wheel sizes
• Lightweight, low-profile build – doesn't get in the way of normal handling
• Flexible plastic construction – built to flex rather than crack on rough trails
• Cable-tie mounting – fits with four cable ties, sold separately

Ideal For

• Trail and enduro riders who want a simple way to cut down mud and spray reaching their face on wet rides.
• XC riders on clay-heavy trails since a fork guard is a low-cost, easy way to add protection for those conditions.
• Anyone switching between wheel sizes because one guard covers 26", 27.5" and 29" forks.
