    I use SKS mudguards. Only problem with the Tricross is that since the clearances between the tyres and frame are so huge you need to extend the crown fixing bracket otherwise the front mudguard looks very odd.
    More problems but still living....

    Thanks. Has anyone tried the raceblades, which appear to be an easier and lighter clip-on SKS mudguard on the Tricross ? Any other recommendations ?

    If the Tricross can take full mud guards I wouldn't use race blades, they a hassle to get setup properly and move about a fair bit, they also don't give as good protection as full guards.
