Odyssey Clutch hubguard alternatives

(1/3) > >>

TerribleAtreyu:
Hi guys, I'm looking for a new hubguard for my Odyssey Clutch hub, because I broke the stock one and it's likely to happen again because I broke it (twice) where there is nothing to support the plastic guard.

Does anyone know wether or not a Shadow SOD hubguard fits on a clutch?
I feel like it might be too small to fit over the non-drive side of the Clutch.
If not, do you think an S&M Symbal would be big enough to fit?

Thanks

Please get in touch with warranty for a replacement.

We had an issue where the factory just randomly changed the tool without telling us and this made the guards super tight on the collars so there was a lot of stress induced in the guard before you even did a single grind. This leads to premature failure. The tool has been put back to how it was originally for all the prototypes now and there should be new guards that are much much stronger available from warranty.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thought I saw a photo of the daily grind guard on a clutch

TerribleAtreyu:
First of all, thanks for the fast reply.

I took a couple of pictures just now for clarification.
I don't really know how it happened, I do know that I tend to hit my hub guard on my way into a grind so that's why I thought it was due to the plastic guard not being supported all the way.

1st piece that broke off


2nd piece


Does the new (or older, in this case) tooling prevent this from happening?

I really wouldn't mind getting a different hub guard, I understand that sometimes a part isn't made for everyone.

The hub itself is great though, I love that thing.

Thanks

with a properly made guard there may be less forces acting on it as opposed to the increase of forces on the improper guard.
