Wyatt Earp Posted January 19, 2011 Share You need to be more specific, chain guard or slap sock ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted January 19, 2011 Share Rather get one and be safe then without and sorry. Get this one https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/95309-chainwatcher/page__p__1290477__hl__chainwatcher__fromsearch__1#entry1290477 It looks and works absolutely perfect. I'm actually gonna get me second one just to keep as a spare because the "original" of these is over R600 if you have to import it yourself.

Bike Mob Posted January 19, 2011 Share get a piece of clear protective film if you want, it goes unseen and will protect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted January 19, 2011 Share Then what is the problem actually, every roadbike should have a chain guard.I'm not much of a techno dude...always open to learning. Whatever that thing is that protects the frame from being slapped by the chain on bumpy terrain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted January 19, 2011 Share That would be a slapsox (original one) or chainstay protector... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted January 19, 2011 Share I'm not much of a techno dude...always open to learning. Whatever that thing is that protects the frame from being slapped by the chain on bumpy terrain... That is called a chain stay protector. It can be anything from a strip of insulation tape to a neoprene cover or even an old tube wrapped around the stay. A chain guard is something that helps keep the chain in check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted January 19, 2011 Share mmmm..... slap sock? Yep. A sock that slappers wear to prevent damage to vital components... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woofie Posted January 19, 2011 Share http://www.parker-international.co.uk/432/Deda-Dog-Fang.html 100% Airbender, CWC sells these.Around 90 bucks or so.I have never dropped my chain to the inside whilst having it.(and it used to happen a lot - curse of the compact) But for your frame, go ahead and do the clear plastic sticker thing.Also on your downtube.
