Just spent an hour fiddling with the Giant mudguards for my Defy 3. An hour's cycling later, the rear split on the metal strips by the brake. 2nd set this has happened to in 3 years so I guess it wasn't my fault after all. Not going to waste my money on them again. Has anyone fitted crud Roadracer mk2 to Giant Defys ?

    Yup - I gave up on mine Defy mudguards.

    I've not used the mk2's but have had the old Crud Roadracer fitted for a while now and they've been fine.

    By the way, I'm running 23's. They should be fine if you use 25's though.

    I had the same problems and ended up using crud mk.2. The original cruds I tried with 25,s didn't fit so I now use 23's without any problems.

    I would be interested to know if you get the cruds to work with 25's as I have 25 Gators and am loathe to change them as they are brand new and I really need the p******* protection.

    Cheers
