[Closed] To bashguard or not

of course! why have spinning sharp things between your legs if you dont need to

(looks at scar from big slash mark on leg........)

E13 LG1 with taco. Best of bother worlds.

I already have a Blackspire C4 bashguard from my dual ring set up. So it would be chain device plus C4.

I would if the chain guide allows it. May as well save your chain/chainring. I've hit my bashguard a few times and was happy I had it.

But the chain would save the teeth on ring if knocked

Had a bashring on for years now. When do you actually use the big ring anyway?

if its single ring front why bother? I run my main bike double chairing with no bash

Would save 100g of weight as well not putting bashguard on 🙂

Do you stand a chance of basing things?

If so then yes.

Yeah but a bash will stop the chain from breaking. Also the bash might stop the chainring from getting bent.

Exactly this. I didn't bother on my rigid bike because it's severely un-gnar. But if I singlering one of my other bikes it'll get a guard because I like riding off big steppy things and sometimes they bite.
