Downhillers have been using this type of guard for a while and we said as much when we printed a homemade version a few issues back. RRP’s is a lot more finished than our re-used inner tube; it’s made from Neoprene and lashes on via five Velcro straps. It stops spray from the top of the front wheel hitting you in the face, which when you’re racing can be a godsend. The best bit is every time the fork compresses, it scrunches up the guard and loosens mud. It’s also lightweight and can go in the wash after a muddy ride. A new and innovative take on mud
