Product Information
Full details
The Cube Acid Mud Blocker Front Long is a high-performance mudguard designed for mountain bikers who frequently ride in wet, muddy conditions and want to protect both their vision and their equipment. Its standout feature is the integrated fork protection system that prevents debris from damaging stanchions, though users should note that the fixed installation requires cable ties, making it less convenient for frequent removal compared to quick-release alternatives.

FAQs
Will this fit my 29-inch mountain bike?
Yes, it is designed to be compatible with 26-inch, 27.5-inch, and 29-inch mountain bike forks.
Can I use this with 2.8-inch wide tires?
The mudguard is officially rated for tires up to 2.6 inches wide. Larger tires may result in insufficient clearance.
Are the cable ties included?
Yes, the package includes six cable ties specifically for a secure, multi-point installation.
How do I prevent the zip ties from scratching my fork?
Use the included transparent protection foils provided in the box to create a buffer between the cable ties and your fork finish.
Is this suitable for aggressive downhill riding?
Yes, the long design and secure mounting system are robust enough to withstand the vibrations and impacts associated with aggressive trail and enduro riding.
Troubleshooting
Mudguard rubbing against the tire
Check if the mudguard is centered. If rubbing persists, tighten the cable ties further or adjust the position to increase clearance.
Mudguard shifting during rides
Ensure the cable ties are pulled tight enough and check that the protection foils are not slippery due to excess grease or oil.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides excellent facial and equipment coverage during wet rides
- Protects sensitive fork stanchions from premature wear
- Compatible with a wide range of wheel sizes and mountain bike tires
- Lightweight yet highly durable construction
- Secure mounting system prevents unwanted movement or rattling
Cons
- Requires cable ties, meaning it is not a quick-release guard
- Installation involves minor effort to apply frame protection foils
- Not compatible with road or gravel forks with different spacing
Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Clean the fork: Ensure the back of the fork bridge and the lower legs are free of grease and dirt for the best adhesion of the protection foils.
- Apply protection: Affix the included transparent foils to the fork legs where the cable ties will make contact to protect your frame finish.
- Position the guard: Align the mudguard with the fork bridge.
- Secure: Thread the provided six cable ties through the designated holes and tighten them firmly, trimming the excess tails for a clean look.
- Maintenance: Periodically rinse the guard with water. If mud accumulates under the fork-protection flaps, use a soft brush or hose to clear it to maintain optimal suspension movement.
