Can someone point me towards a bash guard/Ring for some SLX M7000 cranks with 96bcd?
I use Hope 3/4 on another bike, which would be ideal as the frame has no ISCG mounts, but everything seems to be 104bcd?
You can BB mount a bashguard, it goes in as a spacer.
I like this one

This one from supertar is OK too

Ahhh... OK thanks, top tip about the BB mounted ones 🙂
The only thing to watch is that if you smack it hard enough it might move, and then I would be just tempted to check my BB tightness when I got home - which is why one of the BB spanners is useful rather than a socket.
Eg like this, so you can get it over the BB without removing your cranks. (which does not always work, depends on cranks)

EDIT- I used the blackspire one BB mounted for ages and whilst it moved a couple of times when I hit it hard, it never actually loosened my BB, I was just always a bit worried that it would..
