MRP XCg SL ISCG-05 Bash Guard En Garde! Rocky XC terrain and trail riding put your chainring at risk on every technical line. The XCg SL is a low-profile alloy bash guard that mounts directly to your frame's ISCG-05 tabs and sits neatly behind the crankset where it shields your ring from rock strikes, roots, and anything else the trail throws at the drivetrain. The aluminum backplate keeps the whole assembly stiff without adding unnecessary weight, while the integrated fiber-reinforced skid plate does the dirty work of deflecting impacts rather than absorbing them through your chainring. It's sized for riders running an XC or trail setup who already have an integrated upper guide on the frame and just need reliable lower protection to complete the system. Aluminum backplate delivers stiffness and durability where a flexy mount would transfer impact forces directly to your chainring Fiber-reinforced integrated skid glides over rocks and obstacles instead of catching on them, keeping your forward momentum intact ISCG-05 2-bolt mount uses the two lowest ISCG-05 bolt holes, making it compatible with frames that have integrated upper guides already installed Dropped-chain protection keeps a derailed chain from wedging between the guard and frame, preventing the frame damage that bash guards often cause when they're missing | Mrp | Xcg Sl Iscg-05 Bash Guard 32 Tooth
