CombOver - Front Mudguard (Color)
Description
The full hair do...

Mud still flies. But your face stays clean.

Mud reaches your face in two ways: flung directly up off the back of the wheel, or indirectly thrown up and forwards then blown back at you. The Full Facial set blocks both, it contains:
  • A CombOver for your frame to take the direct spray.
  • A Toupee for your fork to top off the rest.
In our (limited) testing, the 45g set kept our faces cleaner than a 120g moto-style fender.
Super effective. Any mud type. Fit and forget. Light. Silent. Discreet enough to leave on permanently - and on UK trails, you'll be glad you did. Prefer flamboyant? That's covered too.

Fits almost any MTB: any wheel or frame size, suspension or rigid fork, tyres up to 3". Easy to transport and store your bike - it stays out of the way.  Zip-ties included.

Got a mountain bike? This is the easy answer.
Riding rigid gravel? You want the Full Facial Gravel instead.

  • CombOver (2 zip-ties): see CombOver fitting. About a minute, one zip-tie either side of the down tube.
  • Toupee (4 zip-ties): see Toupee fitting. Two zip-ties per side - around each fork lower, and around the fork brace.
FAQs
Will it keep me completely clean?

No! The Full Facial is born of a philosophy that only the face truly needs to be protected: keeping mud out of your eyes and mouth. In practice you'll be clean from your chest upwards.

They cover yer face - we never said anything about yer legs ;-).

Do I need anything else?

No. The set is the complete system: the CombOver and Toupee block different mud trajectories, each block ~50% on their own, together ~95% (there's a bit of overlap). See how they work for more details.

Why two small mudguards instead of one big one?

Because the mud takes two separate paths to your face, and they're best blocked from two different places - each close to your bike, where a small shield does the job. A single guard big enough to do both jobs is a compromise - they end-up heavier and stick-out more. See How They Work for more details.

Will it fit my bike?

Any MTB with disc brakes: any wheel size, frame size, suspension or rigid fork, tyres up to 3".

E-MTBs: the Toupee fits fine; on some e-bikes a zip-tie could obstruct battery removal or a tapered down tube may not suit the CombOver - see the FAQ page for details.

Can I buy the pieces separately?

Yes - the CombOver and Toupee each have their own page. The set just gets you both for less.
