SKS-Germany SpeedRocker Mudguards

[@BRUNO-hl9yb]

Just fitted a pair thanks to your video made it alot easier than the paper instructions. Thanks

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Glad to have helped😊👍

[@peterg7489]

I very much appreciate the time people like yourself take to make these instructional videos, on the strength of this I now have a set up and running, only issue I had from watching your video was the haunting tranquil background music which sent me off to sleep twice.

Thank you James, just fitted mine, your video was a really helpful!! 😁

Have you got your front and rear mixed up my good friend ,🙊🙊🙊😂😂😂😱😱😱💕

[@T5Zplayer]

Instructions are stress, bin'em. Good vid and have bought these for my Boardman ADV8.9

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Won’t be disappointed. Just refitted them due to the crap weather and was surprised how quickly you can install them after they’ve been initially set up. Cheers Andy😊👍

[@Nostrebor59]

Excellent video James. lve recently moved to Gravel from road ( ironically Cannondale Topstone :) and as the weather is turning, lm going quietly demented trying to find suitable guards for my WTB 40's. These will do nicely. Thanks again and keep up the good work

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Glad I helped Robin. Will be installing these back on the Topper this weekend. Means I’ll be able to ride in all weathers. Appreciate the feedback😊👍

[@JamesSocialCycling]

@@Nostrebor59 let me know your thoughts. Wash on a gentle wash, my jerseys are still good as new. Looks like I’ll be wearing the long sleeves this weekend… now to start moaning about the cold weather🤣😊👍

[@markoverall2950]

Great video James

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Thanks Mark, hope you’re well😊👍

[@slinkydonkey]

Thank you James a video is much better than instructions. What size frame do you have? as I have a small and think I will need to cut the metal rods to make it fit.

[@JamesSocialCycling]

I am riding the large, there maybe enough adjustment, but as you say no problem if you have to shorten them. Appreciate you dropping by and the views. Thanks and glad I could help😊👍

[@slinkydonkey]

No problem I just corrected the typo with your name too @@JamesSocialCycling

[@clark2905]

Great video I've just order a set so will be useful, but would put the front straps the other way, this would reduce the flapping whist moving and also less risk of the straps coming undone .

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Cheers Derek. The straps are solid mate, they’re not coming undone at all, the Velcro holds fast. Even had the guards off the bike this summer then reinstalled and again no problems. You’ll get a lot of good use out of them😊👍

[@Countrystock]

Great job James, I’m enjoying your reviews you’ve e done lately .......keep up the great work 👍

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Appreciate the feedback Andrew😊👍

[@PaulGreenVlog]

The odd rant is never a bad thing either Andrew. Young James is a thoroughly decent bloke ,🙂👍👍🚴🚴

[@robertfleming6854]

Nice one James, but then I watched Ramona giving the official SKS Deutsch version (with subtitles). An excellent comparison of English/German stereotypes. Worth a watch :)

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Yeah watched it, cheers😊👍

[@robertmillar2037]

Could you convert the front fender to a one piece by riveting the 2 pieces together and cutting off the stays on the front piece?

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Only way you’re going to find that out is by buying a set. Good luck😊👍

[@chr15b]

Nice one James!

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Thanks Chris😊👍

[@SWIMSMARTCOACHING]

If you cut the rubber things round for the rear guards does that make it harder to take them off and put them on again?

[@JamesSocialCycling]

I’ve cut all the rubber straps and I’ve had no issue when installing them. I pretty much take the guards off every wash. They’re that easy once you have done the initial install. Hope that helps and thanks for dropping by😊👍

[@SWIMSMARTCOACHING]

@@JamesSocialCycling Thanks. I'm set up and ready for installation w tomorrow. I'm totally useless but find your instructions easy to follow.

[@SWIMSMARTCOACHING]

But what about the see through plastic frame guard strips? Ot have I missed that please? Thanks again

[@JamesSocialCycling]

@@SWIMSMARTCOACHINGI wanted to try to make it easy to understand due to too many being very limited on info and quick on time. I’m not sure what you mean by clear straps. Either black rubber which have the holes in which I did cut or the black Velcro which I didn’t cut. Hope this helps.😊👍

[@SWIMSMARTCOACHING]

Thanks so much. Mine came supplied with some see through sticky things that I wonder if they should be installed under the fastenings. My instructions are in German.@@JamesSocialCycling

[@WheelersAtLarge]

Nice one James, hopefully they'll keep the Topstone looking good.👍 Tried SKS for the first time this winter and they're good quality.

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Really sturdy, even though I thought they would move about easy. Thanks Mike😊👍

[@marksimpson1670]

Great video, did you put the translucent frame protector stickers on first? I forgot! 🤬😖

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Hi Mark, no frame protector used. I think the straps are well protected. Have you had some frame paint issues??

[@marksimpson1670]

@@JamesSocialCycling I've put my rear mudguard on today after watching your video. Doubt you need the stickers as you say.

[@JamesSocialCycling]

The Ortlieb bag has done some paint damage on the Seat Tube, but the Speedrocker straps have the silicone protective layer which will save the paint and stop the moving. Cheers Mark, hope you’re well buddy👊

[@rdslmi]

Hello, thank you for the video! I was about to order these but it looks like I won't be able to use with V-Brakes ? :(

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Go on to SKS website and have a look at their mudguards, might be something suitable.😊👍

[@JamesReyesNY]

hey, what size tire are you running? my topstone has 42's

[@JamesSocialCycling]

40’s on the Topstone. Cheers😊👍

[@GNX157]

The extension on the back fender that comes out front, can you pull it out any more and make it end up closer to the bottom bracket?

[@JamesSocialCycling]

If you listen carefully, you hear a tap noise where the extension piece is at full extension, so that is as far they come out. Cheers G😊👍

[@GNX157]

Thanks for that info. I’m going to hold off on this one. The Topstone has built in fender mount bosses at the seat stay cross tube and just behind the BB. I’m going to try and find a fender system that can utilize them.

[@JamesSocialCycling]

@@GNX157 kzbin.info/www/bejne/fojFiX2JadyngZY if you are using smaller tyres the NCS work well. If using 35/40 width you’ll have trouble getting the front mudguard through the fork as I mentioned. Thanks G

[@jensenhealey907efi]

Will these fenders only fit on road bikes with disc brakes? Or will they also fit a road bike with rim brakes?

[@diegoeleazar9154]

Just wondering if your front wheel splash water infront of you? If you do, does the fender help?

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Front fender works a treat. Keeps water off me and off the bike, keeping it clean. More than can be said for the Trek, as no room to fit anything on that. Sprays water all up my shins and feet and the bike gets dirty.

[@diegoeleazar9154]

@@JamesSocialCycling Thank you! Helps alot!

[@JamesSocialCycling]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/immadH95YrBoha8 my review with some real time riding through water to show you the protection. Review starts around 3.38 minutes.

[@vongdong10]

Wish they make this for larger tyres. I just installed the 60mm blumels and the mounts are complete rubbish

[@JamesSocialCycling]

This they do the seat post guard versions for that size on the rear and some forks won’t allow a guard to fit. This might work kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5zHhH6pbMqHbcU 😊👍

[@vongdong10]

@@JamesSocialCycling I ended up getting the speedrockers anyway and they fit haha the rear fitment is quite tight at the seat stay mount. If they didn't make the seat tube mount adjustable then it would fit fine. Much happier with these.

[@bikerted16]

Great vlog James this time of year definitely need mudguards on especially one on the back, got more or less same setup on the Specialized Roubaix back only , and Orbea Terra gravel bike full mudguards on 👏👍🌈🚴🏿💕

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Cheers buddy, appreciate the feedback. Take care😊👍

[@DRM1891]

Would these fit a MTB with rim brakes, 26 wheels, and with a thick front suspension fork?

[@JamesSocialCycling]

No these are for 650 or 700 c wheels so too big. Check out this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5zHhH6pbMqHbcU

[@smoore5540]

The guards look good if your bike has no facility for full guards, but that look like a bit of a faf, mud and crap in all those fittings🤣 I'll stick to my full guards I leave on all winter👍😉 keep the vlogs coming mate👍🚴‍♀️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Hey Stephen, as you say mate, if you can’t put full set on these are second best. Not too much of a faf to be fare🤫😉 Cheers for popping by mate😊👍

Will they fit any bike buddy? I’m sorry but I can’t actually listen to your video atm (in case you answered that question in the video).

Disc specific and 700 wheels and max width 42. Check them out here for more info. www.sks-germany.com/en/products/speedrocker/ Cheers for view and questions. Hope this helps😊👍

[@69ALPER69]

hello thanks for the video. I have been using this fender set for about 1 year. But I have a problem. While cycling, the front fender rubs against the shoes in sudden turns. Normally, I have to keep the pedal at the top of the turns, I know this, but sometimes this is not possible. When the shoe rubs against the mudguard, the mudguard orbital adjustment is disturbed. The front fender starts to rub against the tire. this is very annoying. maybe you have a solution. :)

[@JamesSocialCycling]

Hi Alper, sorry to say there is no fantastic fix for this issue I’m afraid. This will be down to the space and Andre of you head tube and forks. I am unable to fit a mudguard to my Emonda due to not having the space. I also have the same issue with the SKS muddies on my Topstone, you just have to be careful when riding. Sorry I don’t have a fix but something we all have to deal with. Happy riding and thanks for the comment😊👍

[@diegoeleazar9154]

Youll suffer if you have a small frame size.
