Troubleshooting
Sliding bridge clip won't fit
Confirm that you have the correct SKS Bluemels B53 or B60 mudguard model. Ensure the mudguard and clip are clean and free of obstructions. The clip may need to be gently persuaded into place.
Mudguard still rattles after replacement
Check that all other mounting points and fasteners on the mudguard are secure. Ensure the sliding bridge is fully engaged and properly seated. Inspect the mudguard for any cracks or damage that might be causing instability.
Clip feels loose
Re-inspect the mounting mechanism. If it's a screw-type, ensure the screw is tightened appropriately without overtightening. If it's a snap-fit, ensure it is fully clicked into place.
