Product Information
Full details
The Cube Acid Mud Blocker Rear Mudguard (Long) is designed for mountain bikers and trail riders who prioritize protection from mud, grit, and water spray during wet-weather outings. By utilizing an elongated design with specialized side protection, it effectively shields the rider's back and the bike frame from trail debris. While it offers excellent coverage for most aggressive riders, potential users should note that its installation requires a semi-permanent mounting approach using cable ties rather than a quick-release tool-free system.

FAQs
Can I use this on a road bike?
This mudguard is specifically designed for mountain bike geometry and seat stays; it may not fit the narrower, differently shaped stays of a road bike.
Does it fit bikes with full rear suspension?
Yes, but ensure that the movement of the rear swingarm does not cause the mudguard to collide with the seat tube or other frame parts during compression.
Are the cable ties reusable?
No, standard cable ties are single-use. If you remove the mudguard, you will need to provide new zip ties for reinstallation.
What is the maximum tire width it can handle?
The mudguard is rated for tires up to 2.6 inches in width.
Will the frame protection foils damage my paint?
No, the foils are designed to protect your paint from the friction and pressure of the cable ties.
Can I use this if I have a dropper post?
Yes, this mudguard mounts to the rear seat stays, which is independent of the seat post and dropper post mechanism.
Troubleshooting
Mudguard vibrating or hitting the tire
Check if the cable ties have stretched or loosened. Tighten them or replace them with new, high-strength ties to restore rigidity.
Guard is rubbing against the tire
Re-center the mudguard on the seat stays and ensure the gap between the guard and tire is at least 5-10mm to allow for tire flex.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation
- Thoroughly clean the rear seat stays where the mudguard will be mounted to ensure the adhesive protection foils stick properly.
- Apply the included frame protection foils to the contact points on the seat stays.
- Align the mudguard with the center of the rear tire, ensuring adequate clearance between the tire tread and the guard.

Care
To maintain the longevity of the product, rinse it with low-pressure water after muddy rides. Avoid using harsh solvents that might degrade the plastic or the adhesive foils. Periodically check the tension of the cable ties to ensure they haven't loosened due to extreme trail vibrations.
