Favorite Trail:
Northstar
Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Purchased At:
110.00
Strengths:
- light weight! - easy to install - fully assembled on arrival - looks sweet - keeps your chain on your rig
Weaknesses:
- no sprocket protection, but that's not the reason i bought it. so, i will say it has no weaknesses so far
Bike Setup:
SWD Racing 6Gun
Bottom Line:
This is an awesome guide if you are looking to shed some body fat. It keeps your chain where you want it and looks great while doing so.
It comes fully assembled with all the hardware (and more spacers than you can ever use) needed and the installation instructions are nice and easy to understand. It takes some trail / error with getting the right spacers, but once that's done, it's all gravy.
Go check one out! Then go ride.

Strengths:
holds the chain, very light
Weaknesses:
looks kinda funky, expensive
Similar Products Used:

Bike Setup:
06 redline skookum, marzocchi z1, azonic outlaw
Bottom Line:
holds the chain how its supposed to. if your chain ring gets slightly bent this guide is super annoying and the chain rubs the top part and slows you down a ton. but if your cranks are running smooth the guide should work perfect
