The Rockshox Recon suspension fork (and presumably many other Rockshox models) do not have mounting holes for mudguards. This adapter can be attached to the lower legs of the fork using zip ties to provide a way to mount a mudguard to the forks. 

Each adapter takes an M5 bolt, to which the mudguard can then be attached. A small piece of rubber stuck to the inside of the mount stops it from slipping once the zip ties are tight. 

It will work with any forks that have 38mm diameter lower legs. 

You will need: 

  • 2 M5 bolts and nuts
  • 2 pieces of rubber around 0.5-1mm thick and 40mm square 

Instructions: 

  • Print 2 mounts (see photo for build plate alignment, use supports on the built plate only)
  • Push the M5 bolts through (you could also use a nut here but be careful to select the correct length bolt when screwing into it so that you don't accidentally screw past the bolt and into the fork)
  • Cut a piece of rubber (old inner tube works great) and stick it to the inside of the mount (superglue works great here)
  • Use zip ties to attach each mount to the lower leg on the fork. The mount is designed for zip ties that are 2mm in width, you can use smaller width zip ties but not larger.
