[#5016054]

Finally finished convincing myself that a top guide will be enough on it's own for the Meta 5, but I'm not sure which type of mount to go for. I have no ISCG tabs so it's a case of [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=90480 ]bottom bracket mount[/url] or [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=90477 ]low-clamp mount[/url].

Any pros/cons to each type? Already running an XTR hollowtech BB so using the bottom bracket mount won't require buying anything new, just need to take a spacer out.

Clamp versions are easier to fit and adjust IMO.

Hmm, just noticed they do a [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=90476 ]high-clamp version[/url] as well. How would I know which clamp version I'd need?

These are meant to be run with a bash guard in place... if you're not going to use a bash guard I'd go for something different.

My Meta had a low clamp front mech on it so presume it'll be the low one.

Sweet, cheers. Going to order a hope bash with it anyway as I keep clipping my chainring so that should be fine.
