I have a Specialized stumpjumper comp 2011 which is used on and off road. I have decided to buy some mud guards and was thinking to go for the white Cycraguard front and rear mudguard set and a RRP neoguard.

Would people recommend this or perhaps a different setup?

I have also noticed the Lexan front fenders but am put off by the customer reviews.

These are what I use:

Additionally I've fitted a NeoGuard onto the forks, this is the best thing for keeping the mud out of your face, it seems expensive but it really works

I was just about to start a topic on this to, wasn't much fun riding to work today and being covered in dirty rain water (I secretly loved it, but don't think my colleagues did!)
Would quite like some white ones and hear crud ones are good, any other recommendations?
(sorry for the highjack)

I just use standard Crud ones and they're fine. I don't like them to be on the bike unless absolutely necessary but I can fit or remove them in a minute or two. The front one attaches to the bottle mounts on the underside of the downtube, the rear one attaches to the seatpost with a single allen key clamp. The only criticism is that you do still get some sprayback from the front wheel - I guess one of the devices which attaches to the forks may solve this.

I use cycraguards in conjunction with a mucky nutz bender fender, bad choice of name IMHO.

I prefer the look of the Cycraguard to the Crud catcher as it looks more solid. Here are the items I am thinking of.

Looking at the Mucky Nutz bender fender it looks like it would be better than the Neoguard.
