Can you fit them to 3 ring set ups? Nearly carved a nice slice off my leg this morning.
Thanks

I think you can get very thin ones that would go outside the chainring, not sure how much bash they resist.

I have one by Salsa called the [url= http://salsacycles.com/components/tooth_fairy_triple ]Tooth Fairy[/url]. It is more than up to the task of protecting your leg from damaging your large chainring. 😉

It comes with longer chainring nuts and spacers that you need to install it.

Thanks both.
"The Tooth Fairy Triple... features a buzz saw-like log biting design".
Not sure that sounds a lot safer?

The "teeth" on the Salsa aren't very tall, and the tips are an obtuse anngle; they won't cut your leg. They probably do add just enough bite to keep the bashguard from slipping on a log or something, though.

I guess that you could always use a file or a Dremel to sharpen them if that's how you want to roll. 😀
