The Mudhugger FRX is a 435mm, 90mm-wide mountain bike mudguard made in the UK from recycled black polypropylene and weighing about 80g. It mounts to the fork as a front guard or to the rear as a mini guard over the bottom bracket and bearings on full-suspension bikes. It fits 26, 27.5, 27.5+ and 29-inch wheels with tyres up to 3 inches on a boost fork, and pre-formed holes let you add the MAX extender. Riders like its light weight and no-fuss coverage; the main trade-off is that it is a short guard, so it protects less than a full-length rear fender.

Riders rate the FRX highly, praising its light weight, easy fit and effective spray control on the front. Some note it is a short guard and offers limited coverage when used at the rear.
The Mudhugger FRX is a mountain bike mudguard designed and made in the UK from 100% recycled black polypropylene. It was designed with input from World Cup and Enduro World Series riders to give mud and spray protection with little fuss.
It works as a front mudguard and also as a mini rear mudguard. On a full suspension bike, the mini rear setup protects the bottom bracket area and bearings. It protects the bike, not the rider. For the rear, trim the nose if needed (kitchen scissors will cut it) and zip tie it to the seat stays and brace.
Several holes allow fitting to different fork braces. Three pre-formed holes for attaching the MAX extender are skinned over, so they are invisible from the outside unless you need them. Pop them through with a screwdriver 4mm in diameter or less. A front Hugger MAX extension can be added for more protection.
