The Ass Savers Win Wing 2 Road Praline rear mudguard attaches to the bicycle frame. It measures 375 × 85 mm and weighs 64 g.
The principle behind the Win Wing is explained by physics: water and mud leave the wheel in a straight line from the tangential release point. By shielding only the upper rear quarter of the wheel, the Win Wing prevents spray from reaching the rider’s critical areas while using minimal material.
For tangential coverage to work properly, the mudguard needs to be installed very close to the wheel. Aim for 5–10 mm of tyre clearance for maximum coverage.
The blade angle is as important as a close fit. There are three settings to accommodate the angle of your seat stays. Choose a horizontal or tail-up position. Avoid a tail-down angle, as this reduces the mudguard’s effectiveness.
The straps are made from highly durable TPU. Pull them as tight as you comfortably can by hand. If the mudguard is not stable, try the next hole in the strap.
The Win Wing has soft rubber feet that gently hug the frame. However, anything strapped to a bicycle for an extended period can leave marks. To help maintain your bicycle’s new appearance, apply protective tape where the Win Wing attaches.
The Win Wing is sturdy, but its design allows it to flex in the event of an accident. It is also designed not to jam if large pieces of debris get caught near the wheel.
If you want to leave the mudguard attached to your bicycle permanently, you can secure it with a standard cable tie threaded through the designated slot.
The Win Wing has four components, compared with up to 40 in competing products. The glass-fibre-reinforced wishbone holder is flexible and tough, and the rubber straps are highly durable.
Before use, the flat plastic piece needs to be pre-folded to form a functioning mudguard. The scoring lines are designed to provide locking mechanisms, self-centering, spring loading and material durability. For best performance, read the instructions carefully or watch the instruction video.
The black blade is made from 80% recycled PP. The Win Wing is designed for efficient shipping and easy recycling. Each component is available separately, making repairs and upgrades convenient. The Win Wing is 100% made in Sweden in ISO 14001-certified factories.
