^^ To be honest i havent had to remove the rear since i fitted the guards 300miles ago due to the roads i ride are almost totally free from glass thorns etc... but i cant imagine it being to difficult as the guards are pretty flexable and the stays are only held on by 8mm nuts which i could loosen fairly easily if required. The tires are 28c continental citycontact's and have plenty of clearance. I squeezed a 35c tire in the front when i was fitting the guards but i did have to hack the guards about in order for it not to rub, but i would recon a 32c's would work ok. The guards are sks chromoplastic p45's.
