Do you mean a chain guard to mount outside the outer chainring and protect your pants? Or do you mean a bash guard to remove and replace an outer chainring?
What is the crankset?

Chain guard
chain guard to mount outside the outer chainring. I have a photo but it won't let me attach.

You need to know the bolt circle diameter (BCD) for your particular crankset. Next, you'll need longer crank bolts (four or five of them), to account for the additional thickness of the guard. It's not that hard. What is the crankset?
