FAQs

Will this work on a DVO Onyx fork?

No, this adapter is specifically engineered for the DVO Diamond fork series and will not fit other models.

Can I use this with the original ProGuard version?

Yes, this adapter is compatible with both V1 and V2 ProGuard Bolt-On mudguard models.

What size hex key do I need for installation?

You typically need a 3mm hex key for the M4 bolts provided in this kit.

Do I need to use thread locker on the bolts?

While not strictly required, a small drop of low-strength (blue) thread locker can be used if you find the bolts loosen due to extreme vibration.

What is included in the kit?

The kit includes the specialized M4 x 14mm bolts and washers necessary to mount the ProGuard to your DVO Diamond fork.

Troubleshooting

Bolt feels tight before the guard is flush

Back the bolt out and check for debris in the fork's threaded hole. Ensure the thread is aligned correctly before tightening again.

Mudguard vibrates or shifts during riding

Check that the M4 bolts are fully tightened and the included washers are positioned correctly to distribute pressure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a rock-solid, rattle-free mudguard mount
  • Looks professional and clean compared to zip-tie alternatives
  • Perfectly matched thread pitch for DVO Diamond forks
  • Easy to install with standard bike tools

Cons

  • Exclusively compatible with DVO Diamond forks
  • Hardware is small and can be easily lost during disassembly
  • Requires proper torque to prevent stripping threads

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the adapter, first identify the threaded mounting holes on the back of your DVO Diamond fork arch. Align the ProGuard mudguard with these mounting points. Insert the provided M4 x 14mm bolts with the corresponding washers through the guard and into the fork.

Hand-tighten the bolts initially to ensure proper thread alignment, then finish with a 3mm hex key. Do not over-torque, as this could damage the threads in the fork arch. For care, inspect the bolts after every few rides to ensure they remain snug. If you remove the mudguard for summer riding, store the bolts and washers in a small container to ensure they are available when you need to reinstall the guard.
