    Can you fit a bashguard to an XT M785 (38t outer) 2×10? Did some rocky stuff last week, and am fearing chipped teeth……

    Thanks to all those who are about to tell me to go 1×10, but I’m 48 and fat, so i’s staying as 2×10!

    not that I have seen but if you have ISCG mounts or use a spacer on the BB cup you can get static bash guards that stick down below the chain rings. Not ideal as more likely to bend but would look neater too.

    like this: http://www.probikeoutlet.com/chainring-guards/7631-mrp-xcg-44t-2x-3x-bb-mount-bashguard-black-clear.html

    also in 40T: http://www.ebay.com/itm/MRP-XCG-40T-2X-3X-SRAM-BB-Mount-w-ISCG-Bashguard-SRAM-X9-X0-XX-2X-/200777883229

    Fantastic, andyl that’s just what I need. Can’t find anyone in the UK that sells them though!

    I’ve got an XCG triple on my Zesty mounted on ISCG 05 tabs, very tidy and works well.

    Sorted, got the 40T one off Amazon for £32 delivered from the US. Thanks for the help.

    Nice one.

    They do the 36T single one here: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=31952

    Things like this are another reason I don’t want a frame with a push fit BB. Unless it has ISCG mounts I guess.

    Mine has ISCG tabs, but they aren’t the same measurement as the old type or the 05 standard…. so I’ve opted for BB fit…. currently running a single spacer.
