Chain Catcher

[Glasgow44]

Hi folks. Can anyone recommend a good chain catcher for a carbon bike?

Thanks

I've had a Prime one from Wiggle on my Roubaix for the last couple of years, no issues with it. Fits using the front derailleur mounting, so not dependent on downtube diameter unlike the dogtooth variety. About £10 which seems a lot for a bit of shaped alloy.

I use a K-Edge chain catcher on my Roubaix, very similar in design to the Prime one listed above, never sure it's been needed, but did seem like a good idea just in case.

its a very good idea JIC, as a jammed dropped chain can make a hell of mess of a carbon frame. you can also get a foil / metallicised protector sticker to cover the unintended target area.
