Abstract
A mud guard adapted for attachment to the seat of a bicycle comprises an elongated semi-rigid body adapted to cantilever rearwardly from the seat post over the bicycle rear wheel. The body has a forward section comprising a pair of spaced apart, clamping jaw portions, each jaw portion being adapted to extend around one side of the seat post and having a forwardly projecting end portion. A locking fastener extends through the end portions to clamp them together around the post. At the rear end of the body is a yieldable extension member which is bendable when engaged and serves as a shock absorber to prevent excessive stresses on clamping jaw portions.
