    Can anyone recommend a chain device for a double and bash set up?

    I’m running SLX cranks with an E13 bashguard on a Nomad with ISCG 05 mounts on the frame. I’m probably going to be racing a couple of DHs this year and could do with some form of chain retention to avoid losing pedal strokes.

    Anyone got any ideas? Would prefer not to spend a fortune.

    Cheers

    I’m running just the arm and roller from an MRP LRP with a dual and bash chainset.

    Blackspire Beaver is very similar and i know a couple of people running them.

    Fraction of the cost of a DRS but (almost) equitable performance.

    2nd the E13 DRS

    well worth the extra 1/5 lb or so in weight.

    excellent bit of kit. So much so 3 of my buddies now have em.

    Using a Blackspire Stinger, £12, works perfectly

    Vortex racing, is that half pound including the bashring? Could you provide a closer up pic of the DRS fitted? Cheers

    Blackspire Stinger is pretty good for not much dosh.

    E13 DRS *is* better (chain can’t drop onto the BB shell, and you have to really clout the dangly bit to bend it), but is a LOT more expensive.

    the 1/2 pound is what the DRS itself weighs. I think the whole lot including bash = 1lb

    That’s fantastic, cheers.

    CRC seem to have a listing on a DRS without the bashring which would seem to be the perfect answer and at only £35 fairly reasonable. Unfortunately, none seem to be in stock.

    I know this topic was a week ago, however if you are after a DRS then I’ve got one for sale, complete with 40t white bash ring.

    Can sort out pics at the weekend (apologies can’t do it sooner) but could do it for £40 posted if you’re interested? Could probably do with a new roller (http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=27273) but other than that works fine.

    Let me know on greg_barton AT btinternet.com if you’re interested – although can’t do pics or post it until the weekend.
