A complete install of the new extended length ProGuard rear fender. A fender designed to keep mud out of the rear suspension linkage, extending the bearing life.

Just checked their website…Sold Out! Nice job in twisting the zip ties off versus cutting. Never leaves you with a sharp edge that could cut you.

Sweet video man! That rear fender looks sweet, I have the big front one on my bikes and really like it.. Do you know if they offer a bolt on version for a Zeb by any chance?

[@CowichanMTB]

Unfortunately it doesn’t bolt right up to the zeb. I did see an adaptor plate that is made for the ProGuard but unsure of where to get it

Hello from France
Do you know if the extended fender fits on the Tallboy 5 ?
Thanks

[@CowichanMTB]

I can’t say for sure but it likely would. It’s similar to my instinct rear triangle. I have seen some issues with rocks getting stuck between the triangle and frame on the Santa Cruz bikes. The fender would likely stop that from happening

[@Erik-u8h]

Thank you for your answer, I ordered one (standard) I will see@@CowichanMTB

Thank you brotha! Followed your old RRP fender install videos and am very excited to see they released a proper rear-specific fender option.
Respect.
Would have liked to see the old fender vs the new fender in a closer up comparison.

Enjoy

Where is your chain slap protector from?

[@CowichanMTB]

That comes stock from Rocky Mountain

[@thebdceigal]

I wanted to buy fenders from them but they just never have stock, waited months, so I bought another brand. Kind of bizarre since they only seem to sell fenders and bearing kits.

[@CowichanMTB]

The new v2 versions will be available shortly. I will have some videos coming out showing the differences and installation

[@pietroacquistapace3596]

Hi, can you tell me what size the rear and front mudguard is, Mini, Standard or Max?

[@CowichanMTB]

Did you watch the video?

[@pietroacquistapace3596]

Yes, but unfortunately my English is not so good as to understand everything you say, because that's why I wrote the question.

[@CowichanMTB]

Rear is the extended and the front I removed the mini and put on the standard bolt on

[@Slipknot19791979]

I cannot remove the 3M paper from the black protectors :(

[@CowichanMTB]

I struggled as well. I used a razor blade to get under it

[@TheRazvancristian]

These look awesome..(Y)

[@russellmoore1533]

I doubt these short fenders will stop mud and water spraying onto the rider.

[@CowichanMTB]

They don’t and they don’t claim to. Keeps mud out of the rear suspension components
