As the title says.

Due to the poor summer weather we're currently having, and no dry days in sight, I'm caving in and I'd like to fit some guards to the road bike.

Has anyone got a recommendation in the make & model of mud guards that will fit a Cannondale Synapse (disc) 2018. With as little faff as possible ?

Thanks

    PDW are the rolls royce of guards imo, proper quality.

    My 2016 has naff all mounts, but I am not jealous of your 2018 model that is fully adorned with them :twisted:
    I look at it as an opportunity........
    Other main suspects are SKS, and Tortec -Tortec, through fitting experience, and living with, I rate slightly above SKS, although they were (for me) a bit tougher to fit, the outcome seemed to be superior.

    EDIT: Just to add, only just noticed SKS are now making some aluminium guards, which was kind of a usp of PDW.

    I have a Cannondale Synapse 2018 and have these fitted https://www.tritoncycles.co.uk/accessories-c11/mudguards-c146/ncs-700c-mudguards-p22287

    No cutting and nice strong fittings, work a treat.

    Why has no one told me these come in BRIGHT yellow!

    I trawled a few years ago, and there was none, I may need to invest in a pair.
