Good product, robust, lots of settings.

- Dominique, 10 December, 2023

Quite long to adjust the first time, but it's also an advantage because it's long to adjust because you can adapt them just right. For my information, I use them on a Giant TCR 2021, and they fit just under the down tube.

Price/quality definitely recommended

- Jasper, 8 December, 2023

This set of mudguards is a bestseller for a reason. For the price, you get solid material that is quite easy to install. And I do indeed keep it much drier when cycling! I just wonder if it is qualitative enough to last long with quasi daily use.

Pros & Cons

Easy installation

This is my second set and as I really liked the 1st ones on my other bike. Purchased the matt black and they look great on my road bike. Nice and light for mudguards, extremely adjustable and endorsed by my club for winter club rides. Once on and adjusted to shape and size, they are so easy to remove and put back on if required.

Top mudguards for the road bike!

- Frank, 22 January, 2022

Initial fitting/adjustment takes a little time, but after that you (de)assemble them in no time. The matt version is hardly noticeable. They don't weigh much and protect adequately. Do not rattle. Only the seat tube and bottom bracket still get dirty.

Pros & Cons

Easy mounting
Hardly noticeable (matt)
Low weight
Sufficient protection
Front mudguard brackets bend quickly on contact
Front mudguard easily touches your foot

Does perfectly what it is supposed to do.

- T.C., 14 January, 2022

It took some puzzling to adjust and assemble it properly. After one-time adjustment, it is easy to (dis)assemble. Amazing how well it keeps the water and dirt away. No more wet backs and feet in these wet times of year. Mounted on Trek Emonda SL6 with 28 mm tyres.

Pros & Cons

assembly after adjustment
keeps water and dirt well away
lightweight
adjusting to size is a quick job
Automatic translation

5 / 5

Best year-round cycling investment I've made.

- Casper, 3 January, 2022

Because the mudguards can be adjusted at various points, you can actually mount them tightly around your wheels at all times, which means less loss of aerodynamics and optimal protection against splashing water and dirt. Front mudguard is of great added value, saves a lot of dirt in your steering head and on your legs and feet.

Pros & Cons

Easy to adjust to your frame
Long enough to protect people behind you
Not easy to transfer from e.g. racer to mtb

A purchase you think, if only I had bought them earlier!

- Lykele, 13 December, 2021

A fellow cyclist had these on his bike and after some explanation I was convinced. Last weekend I cycled 70 km in the rain and I am super satisfied with them. They do their job super, I hardly have to clean the bike as a large part is absorbed by the mudguards.

Pros & Cons

Easy to remove temporarily
Good price/quality ratio
Incredibly easy to install
Works perfectly (only splash water ahead)

Top purchase if you want to keep cycling even in wet weather

- Mark, 13 December, 2021

Mounting it is a bit of work, but not difficult and afterwards it is easy to dismantle and quickly put it back on again next year. After a ride on wet roads, the bike is still clean and dry and the chain a lot less dirty. A must for anyone who wants to cycle through autumn/winter. It does look less beautiful, but beautiful cyclists only ride their bikes in the sun ;)

superblades for the winter months.

- Arthur, 18 January, 2021

I bought them because you have a lot of splashing water and sand in winter, especially along the coast. Now that's not a bad thing, but now my back stays dry and my frame reasonably clean. Everyone knows that sand, is disastrous for the vital parts of your bike, and with these racing blades you keep that to a minimum. I am super satisfied. Better than an asesaver

Good quality, rattle-free, adjustment is reasonable

- Ronald, 14 January, 2021

Front end went on easily. Due to the bent rear fork, the bars are just too short. As a result, I had to take off a small piece near the brake. It does sit firmly and doesn't rattle and you don't get a mark on your back/ass. An option for longer rods (if the hardware stores were loose I could see if welding rods have the same but) would be nice.

Easy to take on and off

These mudguards are quick and easy to fit and remove with minimal adjustment required, unlike a lot of other mudguards. They can be removed in under a minute for days when it’s dry and they’re not required. Good value for money if you shop around for the best deal.

Almost as good as fixed guards...

- Jon, 10 November, 2020

These are a bit of a faff to set up initially, but once adjusted are excellent. Of course they don't quite offer the protection of fully fitted longboards, but they still do the job very well and I can now run 28mm's through winter and remove in a minute when its dry. Plus the matte black makes you look cooler, which in turn makes you go faster.

I bought these to go on a carbon road bike. They were easy to fit (about 15 mins) and look good too. They are easy to remove when it's dry or for cleaning. They are easily adjustable so I think they would fit a wide range of bike where traditional mudguard fittings aren't available.

Excellent clip-on fenders

- Steven, 23 June, 2016

I am really impressed by the SKS Raceblade Pro XL. I have tried a number of clip-on style fenders in the past but these are by far the best. The only thing I would change is having something on the front of the front wheel to prevent the spray flicking up off the tyre. Apart from that they are great and would buy them again. Recommended.

Pros & Cons

flaps
good coverage
sturdy

5 / 5

Sturdy and very easy to fit.

- David, 15 June, 2016

Wide range of adjustment make them very easy to fit perfectly. Also only take seconds to remove or re-install. The rear guard could do with being longer on the front edge (It just goes up to the brake calliper) to protect the gears/chain a bit more.

Pros & Cons

Easy to instal
Quick to remove
Strong
Very adjustable
Not as long as some fixed guards
