Tree Hubber Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Its winter wet and muddy which I love. I've been looking at Mud Guards. A little protection to stop the paint chipping and all that... Who stocks anything like the ones shown below...
Tree Hubber Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 anybody selling a guard similar to the medium size trail style guard on the top image
BSG Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I've made it myself after I've googled the image using a plastic 5L container, they say one can use a 2,5L plastic colddrink bottle as well.

Tree Hubber Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 Awesome off to the shed I go R195.00 Richer. Dean Bean Posted 18 October 2013 - 04:26It's starting to rain here and I'm tired of getting mud in my eye , so I did a search for fenders and got a number of templates. I'll be using the first one and cutting it out of 4mm plastic from a 20l container that I used for another project (the advantages of being a farmer, all the left over material form old projects, and I'm a bit of a DIY freak) This last one had me a bit mystified, so I reread the page it came from;
fanievb Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 http://www.thehubsa....r-for-your-mtb/ thanks Dean,
MaXiMuM Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I saw them in the Sheriffs shop. Cycle Tech in Midrand/Kyalami. PM him. (Wyatt Earp)
NotSoBigBen Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 'Cycle Tech'? You don't mean Summit Cycles ....
MaXiMuM Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 'Cycle Tech'? You don't mean Summit Cycles ....Yip my brains obviously not what it used to be.Saw them at Cycle Tech.Sorry Sheriff, yip you got Summit Cycles... Don't Know if you have them.
CAAD4 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 If anyone in Jhb makes them, let me know where you get the plastic from. A milk bottle just does not do it for me and I cannot find anyone that stocks laminate type placemats any more...

CAAD4 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Great idea, I'll ask a neighbour. He has the cheapest pool, in terms of maintenance, around. I used to send my kids to swim there often. Cost me nothing in maintenance.
