Chainstay protectors on road bikes

I stand corrected

Yet again

I'd sit down if I was you, it will only lead to exhaustion otherwise.

I have a Lizard Skin protector on my bike (CX). Easily to fit as it has a Velcro strip running full length.

Got mine in Halfords for £7.99

I have Lizard Skins Leather look dodah on my commuter, it makes it much quieter on the rough.

They seem not to be very available at the moment.


Top tip with these, clean clean and clean again and warm the protector in the oven before applying. It makes it much more supple and pliant.

I have Ti therefore I have no need for chain stay protection

People only protect the chain stay? My whole frame is covered in bubble wrap.
