We've decided to beef up the Butt Fender for MTB use. The refined profile and extra thickness makes it stiffer and stronger, so it's built for abuse.
It still attaches to the saddle rails, with no need for additional fasteners, hanging over the back wheel, protecting the rider against 'soggy arse syndrome'.
Soggy Arse Syndrome: "the effect caused by the rear wheel throwing mud and rainwater to your lower back region, which then soaks through to your derrière, leading to a very uncomfortable chafing feeling, especially on those longer rides". Shudder!!
So if you're prone to this problem and are looking for a light-weight, minimalist solution, weighing in at just 35g; look no further!!!

Blurb: -
- It prevents 'soggy arse syndrome'
- It is fitted as close as possible to back face for optimum muck catching.
- It prevents the top of your seat post from getting clogged up.
- Discretion is its middle name. It's small but effective.
- It's possibly the lightest MTB rear mudguard available, at just 35g.
- No need for separate fasteners, so it's easy to fit and take off.
- It's compatible with all standard double rail saddles, so long as they don't have any daft bits hanging off the rear. See Additional Images for clarification!
- When off, it's easy to clean as it's flexible and opens flat. Simply wipe it and you're done.
