--- Quote from: Sammm;3503503 ---^would have thought some of those super thin dh ones (various brands seem to do them, not that I can name a single one) would be amongst the lightest.
those primo (or other) drive side guards. they any use or do they just bend in? snapped my chain on a feebs today for the first time in what seems like forever, but might get a guard just to be extra safe in the future.
also ive got a 10t ratchet, will it fit? dans says it fits 9t or less, empire says 10t. im inclined to trust empire more than dans but still want to check.

i ran one of the primo metal guards over my 9t coaster, but even then had to put an extra spacer under the guard so it would clear my collapse chain. i think youd be very lucky if it would clear a 10 ratchet.
as for the quality of the guard, theyre ok. not great but should be good enough on opposites. my mate had a rhd wheel for a bit and ran the guard on that, his regular grind side, and its now a bit bent and distorted after like 3-4 months.
it was great when i ran it on my coaster, opposite feebles never felt so smooth

think i'll give it a miss then. should probably just learn to grind without hitting my chain instead
a.k.:
Anyone know for sure the spoke length for a Chris King to a Ribcage 3x? I'm guessing 184 and 186?
Sasha:
I'd second that guess.
