What mudguards are you guys using on your road bikes, preferably ones that can be removed quickly that won't damage the bike frame?

I now use full SKS guards as I have mount points - they are quick and easy to take on and off.
But for the wording of your question, you may be meaning the clip-on type.
On my last CAAD10 I used raceblade pro and they were good - or the larger XL are even better. You can make them more secure by using a couple of cable ties through the holes in addition to the supplied straps.
I tried the "longs" but they were a faff TBH.0 -
SKS raceblades, with helitape on the contact points.
Work well for clip ons, although if it's really wet you still get wet feet/muddy bike, but might be the same with other options.
It took a few attempts to get them adjusted correctly but one it's done the bolts haven't come loose and go back on perfectly each time.0 -

Bit of a ball ache to fit, no eyelets on the bike at all, so some bodging required, but deliberately took my time to ensure I set them up so that future fitting and removal would be as simple and quick as possible. Now fitted offer excellent protection from the wet and shouldn't take more than 5 minutes or so to remove or refit in the future0 -
