Flinger Race Pro Clip Mudguards

Hi
Does anyone happen to have first hand / real world experience of these mudguards. My winter bike is a Colnago AC-R with extremely little clearance (will not even take 25mm tyres) but I think these may do the job.

Hi Dave, I have just recently fitted a pair to my winter bike a Spesh Allez.
I bought them after seeing good reviews and so far so good.
They are narrow but seem to offer reasonable clearance and for reference I am riding them with some older version Fulcrum rims with 25mm contis.
Good to fit......I have always had problems with clip ons…...impressed so far , they are good quality but early days and time will tell.

Brilliant, thanks for that

How did these last?
Thinking of getting some for an old Cannondale Supersix. I have read the coverage could be better but could retro fit some DIY flaps.

They look pretty good.

They were ok, but be mindful of the need for helicopter tape as the mounts do wear through paint on the forks, especially on the rear.

Not the quickest to re fit however, so I now use Crud Road Racer Mk3 on the winter bike (currently a Trek Emonda with no mudguard mounts).
