What chain guides are folks using on their BLUR LT2s. Im thinking about getting rid of the triple and sticking on a 36T but it looks like it might be a bit cramped with the virtual pivot design. Just wanted to see what works and what doesn't. Im thinking about a Stratline silent BTW.

Can't speak for the straightline but I run an mrp g2 mini, works perfectly with a 1.5mm spacer behind the chain device. Pretty much silent and zero rub. No modification either ๐Ÿ™‚

I;ve got a lt2 with 1 x 10 set up.I'm using a gamut g25 but youv'e got to grind down the lock nut on the btm roller to about half it's depth so it clears the link.after all it is just a lock nut as the bolt for the btm roller is threaded in the back plate.Igot mine down to thickness using a belt sander and 60 grit paper.

If your going to run just the one chain ring up front you have a few to choose from..

but if its a double bash you want to run then things get a bit more tricky, i dont have a blur but ive had the old tracer and now have the new one, as youll probably know they share the same VPP suspension, the only one i could get to work was the Blackspire Stinger, but it has to be moded and its a bit of faf but it can be done, its tight with clearances and you dont get a lot of tension, but it works enough to keep the chain on....

here is a link for some info on it
