lil pads Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Hi I am and fast improving trials rider and have had problems hitting my disks / rotors in sidehops And am now trying to make a part to stop this. I had a look at a motor trials bike and saw a similar product and I am quite intressed in this but cannot see any around on any websites. ,Please could some one help me find a product like the one below Thanks john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 The ones I've seen are only stone/mud guards, usually just plastic. They're not designed to take any force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 (edited) Nothing about that you can adapt to fit on as far as I'm aware. A guy who I've ridden with had a custom Ti frame manufactured by Triton, who added lugs to the chainstay with a custom made metal protector that bolts on. Its protected him a few times, and the frame is awesome (custom geo, affordable for what it is, etc) The only problem I can see is that hitting the protector could cause damage to the frame itself, I for one would rather bend rotors than frames. Not much you can do to be fair, horses for causes really. Edited April 21, 2010 by Captain Scarlet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
