SKS S-Blade Fixed

Lightweight and easy to fit. However, the bolt that secures it to the seat tube is difficult to tighten all the way, as the nut turns at the same time without being able to be wedged in place due to its size (there's no room for a spanner to hold it in place). If you screw it on as tightly as possible, there's a bit of play, but it holds well, so there's little risk of it falling off. After 1 week's use in the rain and on wet roads, I've noticed that it's really effective, with no more splashes on my back or backpack! The model that screws onto the seat tube is intended for more permanent use, and is safer in my opinion than the Velcro model (which is easier to remove if used intermittently). It's lightweight and doesn't disfigure the bike!

The mudguard does exactly what it is supposed to do and stops all water. Furthermore, it is firmly attached and adjustable to any position. Only disadvantage is that the mudguard in combination with the saddlebag does not fit very well and that it takes some time to mount and adjust it properly on the bike.
