Qu. will this medium sized protector be the right size for my 19" rockhopper ?

Specialized make their own chainstay protectors, which might be your best bet

Definitely worth having to save your frame and kill the horrible sound of chainslap.

A piece of old innertube and a couple of cable ties, job done.

I think it's worth putting something there, whether it's the ol' inner tube trick or a dedicated neoprene guard.

Yes, they do indeed work.

They'll cut down on noise as well.

ive got some Kevlar wire protector role from a harrier jump jet xD works brilliantly and i doubt the chain could bash through that.

have you considered heli tape
does anyone know where to buy it

Joe_Pineapples

You can get good helicopter tape here.
They also do framewrap for your chainstay.
