Guys n Girls, does anyone know of a Velcro (lizard skins style) chain stay protector that would be suitable for a steel framed bike?

All the one I have are to baggy; they are designed for aluminium or carbon frames, thus suitable for larger diameter chain stays.

Before the recommendations come in, I already use inner tubes and things, but I like a Velcro one on top that can be whipped of for easy cleaning.

Thanks in advance.

    I've got the small Endura one on the back of my Kinesis Virtue - it's got typically skinny steel chainstays.
    How would I write my own epitaph? With a crayon - I'm not allowed anything I can sharpen to a sustainable point.

  • Buy a roll of frame wrap from Biketart. It's amazing, I run it on every mountain bike I have. Miles between than shit Velcro on stuff.
