CAUTIO
Whilst fitting these mudguards:
• Confirm they are large enough for the tyres fitted to your bicy-
cle. 38mm” mudguards are suitable for Whyte Cambridge,
Cambridge Varsity, Carnaby, Charing Cross, Cornwall, Devon,
Dorset, Kings Cross, Pimlico, Portobello, Shoreditch, Somerset,
Stirling, Suffolk, Sussex, Victoria & Whitechapel models (Rigid
forks). 46mm” mudguards are suitable for Whyte Caledonian,
Chiltern, Coniston, Malvern & Ridgeway models (Suspension
Forks) and Fairfield (Rigid forks). The Montpellier & Stowe
models have no suitable mounting points for mudguards.
• Check that there will be at least 6mm clearance around the
tyre when they are fitted correctly.
• It is recommended to apply Loctite 243 Thread-Locker or simi-
lar thread adhesive to the threads of all screws that hold the
stays to either the fork or frame. This will help to ensure they
will not come loose. Carefully follow Loctite’s own assembly
instructions.
• SAFETY CHECK – CO FIRM THE CORRECT OPERATIO OF
THE BRAKES A D GEARS AFTER FITTI G THE MUD-
GUARDS. If in doubt either consult the manufacturer’s user
instructions or contact your Whyte Bikes dealer.
Before each and every ride:
• Check that all the fasteners holding the mudguards in place are
still tight.
• If necessary, clean and dirt or road debris from the inside of
the mudguard, since this will reduce the clearance to the tyre.

WHYTE Mudguard Assembly Instructions
Assembling the Front Mudguard:
•Reference figure A. Using a 3mm A/F Allen Key, undo the M4 screw
(1) in one stay bracket (2) by no more than one rotation. Clip the
stay bracket (2) onto the side of the front mudguard (3). Position
the stay bracket (2) approximately 100mm above the mudguard end.
Re-tighten the stay bracket screw according to the torque value
shown in the table on page 15.

•Insert a single side-stay (4)
through the threaded sleeve
(5) and also into the end of the
stay bracket (2). Screw the
sleeve (5) into the end of the
stay bracket (2) and lightly
tighten. Repeat this process
for the other items (1, 2, 4 &
5) on the other side of the
mudguard (3). Do not firmly
tighten the sleeves (5) just yet,
as the side-stays (4) may need
to be adjusted later.
•Remove the front wheel from
the bicycle (refer to page 15 of
the Whyte General Instruction Manual on
how to do this).
•For Rigid Forks
◊Reference figures B & C. Depending on
the thickness of the front fork crown
(see Terminology), use either an M6 x
65 capscrew or an M6 x 60 long or 50
long button head cap-screw (8), plus
two small washers with Ø6 holes (9) and
an M6 Nylock hex nut (10) to attach the
bridge bracket (11) to the rear of the
crown of the front
fork.
◊Reference figure D.
Using an M5 x 12
long cap-screw (6)
and a washer with a
Ø5 hole (7), attach
the looped end of the
side-stay (4) to the
threaded hole in each
of the front fork legs.

◊Reference figure E. Us-
ing an M5 x 20 long
cap-screw (22), a
washer with a Ø5 hole
(7) & two 5mm thick
spacers (23), attach
the looped end of the
side-stay (4) to the
threaded hole in the
left front fork leg. For
the threaded hole adja-
cent to the axle, two
spacers (23) are re-
quired to allow the side
-stay (4) to clear the
disc brake caliper (see Terminology). Some other forks have a
threaded hole further up the side of the fork. In this case no
spacers (23) are required.
•For Suspension Forks
◊Reference figure F. Us-
ing an M6 x 12 long
button head cap-screw
(12) and a small wash-
er with a Ø6 hole (9),
attach the bridge
bracket (11) to the rear
of the lower leg bridge
of the front fork (13).

◊Reference figure G.
Using an M5 x 12
long cap-screw (6)
and washer with a
Ø5 hole (7), attach
the looped end of
the side-stays (4)
to the threaded
holes in each of the
front fork legs.
•Refit the front wheel
(refer to page 15 of
the Whyte General
Instruction Manual on
how to do this).
•Carefully adjust all the fixing points until the mudguard sits evenly and
centrally around the front tyre, with a minimum clearance of 6mm.
Also check there is enough clearance from the mudguard to your foot
when in the pedal rotated fully forwards. Then tighten the fasteners
according to the torque values shown in the table on page 15.
Assembling the Rear Mudguard:
•Slide the bridge bracket (15) onto & around the outside of the rear
mudguard (14) with the tab towards the rear of the frame. Position
the bridge bracket (15) approximately 350mm above the forward
mudguard end (see Figure A on page 6). Check that it is a tight fit
on the mudguard (14).
•Reference figure A on page 6. Using a 3mm A/F Allen Key, undo the
M4 screw (1) in one stay bracket (2) by no more than one rotation.
Clip the stay bracket (2) onto the side of the bare rear mudguard
(14). Position the four stay brackets (2) approximately as shown in
image A, ie: the two lower stays approximately 100mm above the
mudguard end and the two upper stays approximately equal distances
between the mudguard end and the location of the bridge bracket
(15). Insert a side-stay (4) through the threaded sleeve (5) and also

into the end of the stay bracket (2). Screw the sleeve (5) into the end
of the stay bracket (2) and lightly tighten. Repeat this process for the
other items (1, 2, 4 & 5) on
the other locations of the
mudguard (14). Do not firmly
tighten the sleeves (5) just
yet, as the side-stays (4) may
need to be adjusted later.
•Remove the rear wheel from
the bicycle (refer to page 15
of the Whyte General Instruc-
tion Manual on how to do
this).
•Reference figures H & J. For a
frame without a step in the
seat-stay bridge hole (see
Terminology). Using an M6 x
30 long button head cap-
screw (16), a
small washer
with a Ø6 hole
(9), a large
washer with a
Ø6 hole (17)
and an M6 Ny-
lock hex nut
(10), attach
the bridge
bracket (15)
to either the
front or rear
of the seat-
stay bridge
(see Terminol-
ogy).
