Your help please STW…

I don't want to lose any more teeth off my big chainring but I also don’t want to lose the big gears and flexibility by going double-and-bash. I tried one of [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=31508 ]these from MRP[/url] but every time I hit something it moves around and fouls the chainline (I’m sure the ISCG one is very good but that’s no help without the mount). Other options are [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=48105 ]this from RaceFace[/url] and [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=17281 ]this from Blackspire[/url]. Anyone tried either? Or any other alternatives?

Cheers
Mr Nice

RaceFace 'half' bashguard works really well, is light and doesn't look too bad on the bike.

Mrs CD here - I have the Blackspire one, & it does what it says on the tin. The bolts that came with it were no where near long enough for my bike though, so it needed a bit of bodgeit. Once the fitting faff was over it's been great.

We have the Blackspire one on our tandem. Alloy version though.
Fitted straight on and been no trouble at all.
