Once we get these accepted, I am looking forward to the big chain ring covers and chain covers to follow. I am always surprised when on a group ride and someone rolls up with a >$5,000 bike with that plastic spoke protector cassette guard thing still installed. At least the reflectors on the spokes have some benefits.

Although, it looks like it might be an effective deli meat slicer/extruder while bike's in the workstand. So there's that.


Only covers half the rotor anyway so it's a POS.

Didn't you hear Sinyard? He says we'll all be on discs within 2 years. Bow down to your betters.

I'm going to go into creating bespoked disc guards. Anodizing, fillet, custom shaped cooling holes, sharpening etc... You watch, it will be the new emerging custom "makers" genre.

Better be like that because there's a lot of high end bikes that won be used and let go for the right price.

Honestly... this is getting stupidly ridiculous, and who cares who sinyard has to say? the only thing i ever got from him was a pair of shoes that did not fit me besides they sucked, and even more after the sues to honest people, I have no intention to follow him and his predictions.
