    Just got a Vitus Nucleus 29 VR and need to get a rear mudguard.

    I've narrowed it down to the Mudhugger or Topeak Defender XC11.

    Is anyone using either and what is your experience?

    TIA

    have used something like this for the front: https://www.decathlon.ie/ie_en/front-mountain-bike-mudguard-flash-black-en-s119932.html

    never used one for the back on hardtail, for full sus have used the same but just to protect the shock from muck and mud (is there a difference!?)

    Highly recommend the mudhugger 29er, recently fitted it to my bike, went down the trails with it, very muddy and only had two spots of mud on my back. Bike was filthy. Also recommend the crud xl for the front

    Thanks for all the replies.

    I've now taken delivery of a Mudhugger medium (as advised by the firm for my bike).

    Lowest price was Wiggle.
