The splash guard comprises a front portion (24), a central portion (26) and a rear portion (28). The splash guard is adapted to extend over the seat post, when the splash guard is mounted in the seat arrangement, whereby the front portion of the splash guard is adapted to be bent downwards to pass down through the pair of seat rails, when the splash guard is mounted in the seat arrangement. The front portion of the splash guard comprises a first fold line (132) at least partly, preferably completely, delimiting a tip portion from the rest of the front portion, such that the tip portion is located in front of the first fold line. The first fold line is curved in a forward direction, preferably having a shape of a V with a rounded apex or an arcuate shape. The tip portion is adapted to be folded at the first fold line from below upwards towards the pair of seat rails in front of the seat post, when the splash guard is mounted in the seat arrangement. The disclosure further relates to a method for mounting a splash guard to a seat arrangement of a bicycle.
