According to the product specialist

Pros
This Topeak DeFender XC11 is specially made for 29 inch wheels.
The polished underside ensures that there is no accumulation of dirt and mud under the mudguard.
Thanks to the quick-release mounting, you can easily (de)mount this mudguard.
The many adjustment options mean that this mudguard will fit almost all mountain bikes.
The X-Blade is suitable for mountain bikes or trekking bikes with 27.5 and 29 inch wheels.
This mudguard is very easy to (dis)assemble thanks to the quick-release attachment.
The two pivot points allow you to adjust this mudguard exactly right for your bike.
Cons
The quick-release mounting is very sturdy, but obviously does not stay in place as well as a real fixed mounting.
Despite the fact that the quick-release attachment is very sturdy, a mudguard with a fixed attachment will remain in place better.
