Chainring guard

[Niel]

To all of the front wheel drive enthusiasts out there - I was wondering if there is some kind of guard that will work with FWD available that will protect the chainring sprockets from being damaged in the event of a hard bump. I've been moving my bike around with one of the crank arms aimed forward to fend off mishaps but the extra protection of a cover or guard would certainly help maneuvering the bike into its cramped storage spot.

Thanks in advance for your input - Niel

I believe THIS chain guard was fitted to a Silvio for racing purposes.

A note of caution re the HP Velotechnik - Chainring Guard: it says in the information that it is only for single chainrings. Could be a probem, if you have more than one chainring.

I installed a bash guard on my trike from Purely Custom and was very happy with the quality and weight. As the name implies they do custom work with engraved logos, artwork, borders and text. They weigh 180 g and ordering is very easy. This company sells all kinds of gadgets to "pimp your ride" if you are so inclined.
