Affordable bashguards

Found a site:

Lots of ppl who upgrade to a internal hub have to change out their original chainring and are left with a bashguard that won't fit the new chainring.

Thanks for the heads-up on this.

Unfortunately the largest size they list is 44t. I've emailed them to see if they can do custom sizes and hopefully their CNC equipment will allow larger fabrication.

Good idea, I'll do the same.

Just wanted to move this up.

I'm in conversation with these folks and while they don't offer custom sizes in alloy, they do in plastic. Just got an email that they are the same designs as the alloys and he's going to try and send some pics. While it would be more desirable to have alloy, plastic versions of his designs would be much nicer looking and lighter than what is usually available from the manu's. Much better than the ugly lump on my Birdy at present.

Will keep you-all posted.
