Wasn't sure where to put this - so went with general.

I've just bought a Cube Cross Race disc for some gentle off-roading as well as road use through the winter months. I want to fit some full mudguards and most of the mounts look fairly standard - except for the rear ones.

Instead of the mounts being on the side of the seat stay, they are on the back - facing rearwards just by the hub.

Has anyone got one of these and fitted mudguards? Did you just adapt / bend the mudguards to fit?

    Perhaps they are 'hidden mounts', like Trek do. They require additional screw in mounts like:

    If all else fails, you should be able to achieve what you need with some P-Clips.

    Thanks Peat - those could definitely be a good option

    Got my bike shop to just bend the end of some standard mudguards to fit.

    Works well.

    Other stores have them too, but don't these fit? This revised set of the Cube guards has been available for just under a year IIRC.

    The only snag I sound was that when I bought mine, they didn't supply the correct (M5x25mm?) hex screw to use on the guard's fake seat stay bridge, but it's an easily obtained screw from hardware stores.

    Thanks Sinbad and N2O. N2O those might fit the attain but they look wrong for the cross race.

    On the cross race, the seat stay bridge is not a hole right through, but threaded on one side.
    Also, the front mudguard would need a flat mount as the hole is on the outside of the forks, whereas the rear mount would need a mount bent 90 degrees as the mount is on the back of the seat stay, not the outside (shown in my avatar).
    It doesn't look like I can simply switch the mounts due to the rear needing 2 holes.
