Default Rear Hugger

Do any of you guys know where you can buy an after market rear hugger? I am after one that covers more of the tyre than the standard ones.
Any info would be appreciated.

Mike

I've seen a few around but their the "Carbon" look types, wot I did though, I went & got a rubber sheet (bout 1/8 inch thick) cut it to the same contour of the hugger (bout 11 inches long) & simply glued it on with silastic. It extends the hugger by about 6 to 7 inches, & because its the same curve as the hugger, does not sag onto the wheel. Its been there for 9 years, so you could say its not going to fall off. Plus its fairly discreet & does not look daggy (unlike the owner of both counts). Stops an incredible amount of crap from hitting the rear shock and under tray area, and was a cheap alternative.

I will bear that in mind, I quite fancy a carbon look hugger and chain guard as it would go well with the colours of my bike, but if all else fails I might give the rubber a go.

Cheers
