    Put it round a dogs head. It’ll stop him licking his balls.

    (coat on and leaving :O)

    It’ll be for fitting behind the cassette then?

    Thos long things are for tying round your forks and seatstays so that you wheels make cool motorbike sounds and the disc is a deadly weapon for throwing at any attackers.

    So nobody else know, at least that reassuring.

    It’s sort of 160 disc size and thickness

    It actually goes on your chainset to stop your trouser leg getting mucky. The holes are on a 110 and 130 PCD. Obviously gets included with every bike; not relevant to a MTB though.

    Is your cassette on the left hand side of the bike? ? 😯

    The dog is awesome 😆

    edit: nope, I’m a tw@ the bike is upside down… 😳

    I can only imagine it’s some sort of trouser-protector that you’d zip-tie onto the outside of your cranks so stop chain oil ruining your sisters jeans. That would certainly explain the cut-away portion. It would only work on certain makes of cranks though. Perhaps if the OP told us what bike it was?

    Love the dog pic.

    Although I’m a bit concerned what people may suggest next as you are clearly happy give it a go and post pics of the result 🙂

    It’s a bag with some cable-ties and and a device to stop them being bent whilst in transit?

    Is there an equivalent to child-line for dogs?

    In some markets a chain guard is a legal requirement on 1x (weirdly a front mech actually counts on 2/3x). I am guessing that maybe you have a German bike with a SRAM direct mount crank on it? I think you zip tie that to the chainring 🙂 The two holes presumably allowing for the different sizes of ring you might encounter.

    this has the makings of a great thread, I want more installments of MagnetoHund!

    Around the chain too I presume to aid chain retention?

    Specialized? Trouser guard cable ties to a standard 104mm spider or an XX1 76mm offset bolt hole spider. Bin it 😀

    Yep, Spesh, in the bin it goes.

    He’s 13, bless him, flying may be a bit too much…
