The rear one has been getting worse for a while. It started to warp after 6 months so I had to adjust the bracket daily to stop it rubbing against the tyre. It also generally rattled and makes a lot of noise. The final nail in the coffin was when the bracket holding it to the brake snapped yesterday.
I could buy another bracket as the mudguard (besides being worn and warped) is still in one piece, but my commute today was so peaceful it highlighted how crap it had gotten.I'm tempted by Plume, my only concern is that it's mounted quite high above the wheel so I can't see it being that effective. Anyone got any experience with it? Musguard looks a little better (more coverage) but unfortunately I like my rear brake!
Where did they break? Mine lasted about 800 miles before the seat tube bracket popped its rivets. Still usable with a couple of holes drilled through and a couple of cable ties.
