has anyone given plastics a decent run? which brand holds up?

<< < (6/9) > >>

blueee:
also ive snapped two during smiths, but i just dont think about it
wouldnt think about running a pleg in the rear, tho.

JFax:
I run a S&M cymbal guard with animal pegs and like it. I previously had a BSD (Alone?) plastic guard that was flush.

I prefer not flush as it doesnt touch all the time when I grind. Remember, a hub guard is designed to protect your hub, not necessarily to be grinded on.

sans.terre:
party on Garth, does it look trash?

could i ask you for a photo?
bsd makes nice shit. the

might be the only way to avoid mickey mouse style. (for plastics).
lol, and i know in theory i should spend my time on the pegs but really i just hang out wit my guards out.

JFax:
I just realised that I actually went back to my Ratchet Cassette hub that I cant use my Cymbal on (I think)!
I actually use the inner aluminum core from the BSD guard, as the plastic broke and I cant find a replacement

sans.terre:
does that plastic guard hold up? i know a homie had the animal PYN guard and it snapped almost immediately. all brittle and shit.
the primo snap on ones seemed alright.

and yeah - when i had the ratchet i couldn't run the cymbal on it.
i mean, i could - but it wasn't pretty.
tryin'a gape my dropouts like it was belladonna youknowwhatimsayin
