很多帅单车设计简约，他们往往没有挡泥板。当下雨的时候或者经过泥泞之地骑着帅单车，但是身上被甩得到处都是泥点，这就一点不帅了。

Musguard应运而生，来自Jurij Lozić的心血之作。Musguard是一款可拆卸，可弯曲的自行车挡泥板。灵动飘逸的外形中看也中用，能在雨天和泥泞道路上保护你的背部。

Smart and elegant solution for protecting your back when riding on wet and muddy roads.

不使用的时候，你可以轻松的将Musguard卷起来，它占地非常小，重量也十分轻，仅35克。你可以挂在身上，放在包里，或者卷在自行车杆上。需要时，可以迅速的安装上。Musguard的材质是可回收弹性聚丙烯塑料片，可以折叠，展开后也非常稳定。其良好的使用效果适用于没有自带挡泥板的单车们。

What makes Musguard better?

1. It’s rollable!

When not in use it packs very small. It can be rolled on your frame or simply stored in

your bag, pocket or hung on your key-chain.

2. It’s minimalistic!

It is very lightweight – just 35 grams. No mounts, no extra parts to mess your bikes

aesthetic. Completely removable.

3. It’s easy to use!

The application is simple and fast, no tools needed. It fits neatly, very close to the rear

wheel.

4. It’s durable!

It is die cut from a strong, resilient and recyclable polypropylene (PP) plastic sheet

using a unique folding system for stability and firm fit.

The close fit is crucial – the sooner you catch the water (or mud) spraying from the

wheel, the less wet you get.

5. It fits perfectly!

Originally designed for use on fixed gear/single speed bikes, Musgard fits most frames

with paired seat stays and works best on bikes without a rear brake.

“Musguard is a brainchild of me, Jurij Lozić. I am a product design graduate from Ljubljana, Slovenia (EU). Since I have a lot of interests, my work varies from illustration, mural painting, product and interior design to public and gallery art installations.

The idea for Musguard came about 5 years ago in Milan, Italy, where I studied for a year and also made my first fixed gear bike. I was looking for a simple, removable fender but when I couldn’t find it, i decided to make one myself. I was familiar with strong, resilient polypropylene sheets, so I made the first prototype, a one-off laser cut piece. Because of positive feedback from people who saw it, I decide to continue to perfect it.

The concept behind Musguard is quite simple: I wanted a fender that would protect my back, would be removable, would pack small and most important: would suit the sleek, streamlined, light, clean, simple, minimal aesthetic of fixed gear bikes. Like a feather or a leaf.

In the process of development I took all of the above aspects and worked on them one by one. Structural stability and ease of use, sleek shape and efficient protection, cool look and good function at an affordable price. What I regard as true values of design.

I use the word “We” throughout this campaign, because even with me being the driving force behind this project, I would never be able to do it without help of my overly talented friends.   ”   –Jurij Lozić
