Down here in Philly the messengers wear grills, that is one craze I am not going to blindly follow.........welll...at least not while riding.

This post made me throw up in my mouth a little, but then I just fed it to the little guys.

I see the title of the post say "Mouth Gaurds" not "Gourds", definitely. And I'm not crazy.

Wait for the reflective ones. Cars are turning towards you and all you have to do is smile for them to see you at night. EPICNESS!!!

sorry ethan, but michelin actually made a mouthguard with a reflective stripe back in the 90's. didn't go over too well, but when i was a courier i had michelin 'cross tires for a bit with reflective sidewalls. i never wore a mouth guard back then, but i knew where you could get the glow in the dark ones.

Colored moufgaurds lol...I think its hilarious how hard these kids try to be different.
Clearly, mommy and daddy havent done their jobs.

yeah, because the role of parents is to teach kids that people should only differentiate themselves from others though attainment of money and power.

colored moufguards on the other hand showcase the unique style and individuality of each rider, while protecting their teef from potential damages of the urban setting.

No, these kids just beg and cry for attention in anyway they can get it. Mommy and daddy failed.

A colored mouthgaurd 'showcases theyre unique style? Thats ****ing hilarious! If you need a mouthgaurd to do that then youd have some pretty pathetic style to begin with.
Also, riding with a mouthgaurd not only prevents proper breathing but also reduces your ability to yell at the top of your lungs...which can save your life in traffic. I know its saved my ass from getting hit by cars on multiple occasions by drivers that werent paying attention.

Lemme guess..you wear a mouthgaurd?

Colored is just the beginning of it. When I was a kid playing hockey you'd see some ridiculous mouthguards - custom stuff you had to go to your dentist for and make a mold of your teeth for. I think my favorites were the red/white/blue ones or the color swirl ones.

The really creative kids cut up a few different mouthguards and melt them together - kustom-kolors!!!

No....theyre just laughing.

I wear a mouthguard every time I ride now, something I started doing earlier in the year when I realised having never had concussion I don't really want to find out what it feels like. I wear my full face helmet more than I used to as well (and still wear the mouthguard). It took me a little time to get used to wearing a mouthguard all the time but I can't say it causes me any problems other than walking into a petrol station or shop to buy a drink and trying to talk, forgetting I'm wearing it...

I said this before... messengers. as in dirty dudes on mountainbikes who are in their late 30's. Not the kiddies in your city who ride their $900 track frame around to coffee shops and such.

deathhare

What about the 2 guys above that wear em?
One guy even thinks his mouthgaurd will prevent a concussion. lol....

johnprolly

i make my girl wear mouthgaurds.... the two guys above probably just wear them for style. The people I'm talking about are those crusty messengers who don't give a f uccccck, yet wear mouthgaurds. or guords.

DPC

Can you prove to me it either won't or can't prevent concussion?

I heard that profile design is coming out with some dope new mouthguards for the urban fixed gear scene, and that they'll be sponsoring austin to sport them. That shiz is doooooope.
