Mountain Bike Mudguards
How do I install these clip-on fenders?
I just bought clip-on fenders for my mountain bike (I use it for commuting… what I could afford) and there were no instructions on installing them. I am challenged with this sort of thing. Can somebody please help?
The fenders are like this:

I have a set of fenders something like these and they are easy to use once you get them on, of course. First, The clip on part on the rear wheel is slid alongside the top of the tire all the way down to the seat tube (near the Bottom Bracket junction.) Now, you will screw in the screws (bolts) into the frame near where your brakes are mounted. There should be a cross brace that goes from one side of the seat stays to the other and there should be a hole that the bolt goes to. This will permanently mount a holder for the clip on fender to slide on and off of.
Second, the front fender is just like the last except you only have to mount the holder to the fork right below the junction where the legs are welded or if you have a suspension fork, to the hole at the base of the fork crown.
If you are having trouble with some of the terms, look up:
