Hey man, have you ever made a mudguard for lefty forks? Would be great for cannondale riders to know. Great channel!
Definitely something I need to look into. I will see what I can find
One dude singlehandedly brings down the mud guard industry in one video
😂
I've done this many times with dollar store folders. Since they have plenty of colors. I made plenty for my friends
Greetings from Germany. you saved me some money!
Hello 👋 now that is all the way across the world. Happy it helped.
Im not first
Im not last
But when mike uploads
I click fast
Haha I love it
So true 👍
Nice original comment
how about the correct measurement for the template?
do you have a drawing with the dimensions so i can know the size i can cut?
Dude. Put the ends of the cable ties under the fender, out of sight. Looks much cleaner. Great video.
The frame of the bike was being splashed by the water your mud guard is not long enough
I was at a estate sale I found over 30 of that style of folders. I made many front mud catchers and gave them away. Easy and on the cheap. ...but do crash they bend and rip easy.
I made this with a plastic folder just like in the video, and after a few months of trail riding it has cracks and holes. Dirst seems to be flying off the tires and hitting the mud guard, destroying it. Is there a way I can stop this?
those aren't big enough to make any significant difference lol
Definitely not for commuting but it works great for those small puddles you can come across in the trail.
Didn’t read all the comments, but the only advice I would give is to tape the template to the vinyl cover and then cut it. The paper seemed like it would be too thin and the marker would move the paper outside the trace line. Very good video and idea though.
*Great Idea Mike! Thank you!*
You are welcome 😊
You got the MVP today. Congratulations!
Cool! I’ll try it out today
Edit: Ot works and looks great!
I need a template plz
Checkout my pinned comment on this video. I have a link in there that will take you to the template.
Those big holes are to fix the mudguard to the frame with screws
Plastic Folders gone stonks after this....
Yep! I made some for my fat bike.Even though I don't have suspension, I still don't like mud spraying up into my face. I included a rear one to protect my dropper seatpost!
and for the back, you have any template? tkz :D
The folder bent down and I went down the mountain sounding like a dirt bike😂
So it is a mud guard and a moto bike sound maker. Sounds like a win win to me!! 😂

Where can I find the template for this?
You have template for this?
Design is limited by the A4 template and using a hole punch with limited range from the edge. If going to the effort, I'd want. a bit more extension out front, requiring four holes to fit onto the fork brace. Prhaps a drill would do the centre holes nicely? Would like to know where to get a heavy duty plastic sheet, at least 300 x 300 mm.
These type of fenders do nothing to prevent mud and water spraying everywhere. The whole concept is bogus, as the size of the fender is woefully inadequate for the purpose. You might as well try to convince people that a cocktail umbrella will keep them dry in a downpour. 🤨
Thx
Thx
it should be placed in front of the tire right? just like a motorcycle?
No this is a common and proven design. It works really well for those wet trails rides.
@@RunBikeMike okay i will try it. I hope water splash does not hit my face when i put mudguard in the back of the front tire.
Just follow my video and you will see good results. It is not 100% perfect but it works really well. Good luck.
Nice! Would you happen to know what size bolt is used for that little hole on the bike's front forks? It's traditionally a mounting hole for fenders or headlights.
I am not sure. But if you could use that bolt to hold it on that would be cool.
Don't even bother friend. Unless you have the most secure bolts in the world that thing is going to get loose on it's first ride on anything that isn't a flat tarmac street
Maybe some loc tight? Maybe 🤔
@@deniahmetaj I have a headlight attached there now. I ride off road. It's as tight as the day I installed it.
Thanks for the idea Mark. It's a good thin material for tight clearances.
I just recycle old milk cartons or washing up cartons like we used to do back in the 80s. it was a bit of a trend then for road bikes.
Very 👍 well ❤ done !
Sick Hack!!
Thank you 😊
I was thinking about getting Lumafuisian? I know you use it so I was wondering if you think it would be easy for me to use? P.S I got you sticker in the mail today!!!
I love it. It has a big learning curve but is the most advanced video editing software on iOS. If you watch a lot of videos on it you will pick it up. Let me know if you get it. And awesome on the sticker.
@@RunBikeMike i got it. i just dont know how to put text in like you..
Love the kona 😁
Hoe do you know that its really 23cm when u print it?
If you make two you can mount the second one on the rear end of the bike
I’m going to try to make one from a cheap $3.00 Walmart trash can, the small one like you’d use at your desk.
The plastic is thicker than the folders
Great idea. Let me know how it goes
Very nice. Will try that.
Cool....
Bro, Is there any tips for rear mudguard?
I haven’t tried to make a rear guard yet
Cheaper and in my opinion looks way much better
Awesome very creative and cheap to do. Thanks a lot.
One of the best and direct to the point
Thank you 😊

Great. What about the rear Mudguard?
Nose wheelie through all water lol
can i do this on a road/hybrid bike??
I think so
where do i get the mudguard template?
There is a link in the pinned comment
do you have a soft copy of the template?
There should be a link in the pinned comment on where the template is. I am not sure what a soft copy is.
@@RunBikeMike thanks!
Fantastic, what's the template for the rear?
I am not sure about the rear mud guard. I will have to look into that.
Thanks
Great tutorial!
Thank you 😊
Can u just laminate the template ?
Very true you can if you have a laminator.
I will try it out after my ride !
Maybe use a thicker sheet of paper
@@eamonlee159 sure that would help. The folders have worked perfectly for me.
Hey man where can I find that template
runbikemike.com/2020/06/25/make-a-mudguard-for-your-mountain-bike-for-2/

😂
