Portland Design Works Mud Shovel
Best effective mud protection for mountain bikers in wet conditions.
This is the ultimate low-friction solution for keeping grit out of your face on sloppy trail days. The tool-free strap system makes it incredibly easy to install or ditch on the fly, though the lightweight plastic build lacks the rugged, permanent feel of heavier, bolt-on alternatives.
