Mark W Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 tarty will say thats batterd Still think you can judge a frame's condition from one angled photo compared to actually having a frame in your hands and being able to look at it up close then? If that's Jack's old frame, I'm pretty sure he uses a bashplate which is why it's probably gone there. It's a second hand frame too, so I guess it's up to Onza themselves about that one. They're usually pretty good with the half price replacement thing - a customer of our's cracked their's and got the half price deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 I've always viewed a bashguard as a guard to stop you bashing your bike, as in you try a move and slip down and it saves your BB/sprocket/freewheel/chain/whatever, rather than purposefully going to it or anything like that. Just always felt poo. Regardless - on a light frame, there's less material to support the front mount so it's going to not stand up to being battered as much as a heavier frame with thicker tubing.

eskimo Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 Bash guards are for bashing, it's in the name silly. Regardless, i personally don't think companies should waste money and weight on such a thing when it comes to light weight frames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
