The Deflector FC50 is a universal front mudguard and frame protector for adult and children’s mountain bikes, city bikes and hybrid bikes. It sits discreetly beneath the down tube and helps shield you from rising water, mud and stone projections, while also protecting the frame from debris.
Installation is straightforward: the MD-Quick system uses two 165 mm elastomer straps that fit down tubes up to 75 mm in diameter. You can fit or remove the guard without tools, making it useful when weather changes or when you want a cleaner-looking bike for dry rides.
Compatibility covers 24, 26, 27.5, 28 and 29-inch wheels with tyres up to 3.0 inches wide. The polypropylene guard measures 340 × 80–60 × 35 mm and offers a minimal protection level—a compact, practical solution for everyday riding rather than full wet-weather coverage. Check that the mudguard is tight before each ride.
A practical choice for commuters, casual riders and mountain-bike users who want quick, removable front splash and frame protection across a wide range of bike sizes.

Tool-free MD-Quick mounting
Two elastomer straps attach beneath the down tube quickly, so you can install or remove the mudguard without tools.
Broad frame compatibility
The adjustable mounting system suits most frames and down tubes up to 75 mm in diameter.
Wide wheel-size range
Designed for 24, 26, 27.5, 28 and 29-inch wheels, making it suitable for adult and children’s bikes.
Up to 3.0-inch tyres

Frame protection
The guard helps reduce contact from rising water, mud and stone projections beneath the down tube.
Discreet fit
Its under-down-tube position keeps the design compact and unobtrusive on the bike.
Polypropylene construction
A polypropylene guard with elastomer straps provides a straightforward, removable mudguard solution for everyday use.
