What is the maximum tire width these mudguards can accommodate?

They use a simple clip-on system for easy attachment and removal without tools.
Do I need any tools to install these mudguards?
No, the clip-on design typically does not require any tools for installation.
Can I paint or customize these mudguards?
While the product is designed for kids to personalize their bikes, painting directly on the mudguard material may affect its durability or finish. It's best to consult the manufacturer's guidelines or use compatible stickers.

Can these mudguards be used in all weather conditions?
Yes, they are designed to protect from mud and water in various weather conditions, but prolonged exposure to harsh elements may require more frequent cleaning and inspection.
Troubleshooting
Mudguard is loose after installation
Re-check that the clip mechanism is fully engaged on the bike frame. Ensure the tire width is within the compatible range (1.65"-1.95"); if the tire is too wide, the mudguard may not secure properly. Adjust the mounting points if possible.
Mudguard rattles while riding
Confirm the clips are securely fastened. Some slight adjustment to the mudguard's position might reduce contact with the tire or frame. Ensure no debris is caught between the mudguard and the tire.
Mudguard does not provide adequate coverage
Verify the mudguard is installed on the correct wheel size (24"). Ensure the fender is positioned as close to the tire as possible without rubbing. Check if the tire width is within the specified range; wider tires may require different mudguards.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The SKS Velo Junior Mudguards utilize a clip-on system. Ensure the mudguards are positioned correctly over the tire. The clips should engage securely onto the fork crown (front) and seat stays/seat tube (rear). Adjust the angle for optimal coverage.
