Hi! :)

I'm looking to purchase a bashguard without having to remove my largest chainring. Is this possible with the bashguard in the link below? I see there is a 40T option and my largest ring is 40t.

Any advice would be much appreciated!

    Not happening unless you remove a ring.

    Shimano and Truvativ do trouser guards that can be attached to the outer ring, but it's not a bash, Hope do an integrated bash on their single speed rings, not sure if they do it on ramped and pinned, otherwise it's not going to happen unless you get some extra long chainring bolts and make up some spacers to sit the bash outside the outer ring, but then any impact will be taken by the (long) bolts only, so it won't be terribly robust either.
    Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.
