In dire need of help identifying this bashguard!

Thanks @novocaine. That‘s looking mighty fine, what material did you use for this?
I think I might adapt what I have (since that‘s sort of the mantra of my build *besides „watch me fail!“)
but come time (yeah right, who am I kidding?) I want to make my own bash looking like the one Martyn used but adapted to my needs (32T).
Thank you!

I did wonder about whether you could hide the thin part behind the crank. Had some similar challenges with a crank with the hidden bolt.

I hope you can make it work, would enjoy seeing the result if you go down that route.

Good luck.

Yeah I will definitely keep you posted. This will all go in here, hopefully sometime soon:

think it's 6mm aluminium, remember it being 2011 but might have 6061. It was free machining what ever it was.

I've got some 2011 10mm extrusion in the workshop but it won't do 32t.

Yeah thanks, I read that, loved it, it‘s on my list

I am quite liking this although it's not identical to the one in the first photo

@2manyoranges
Thank you. Love these. Especially the Monty, if it were the right BCD, I’d be all over that one
The trouble with most 5bolt Bashguards is that they have a cutout for the crank between 2 bolts and it seems really hard to find one for a hidden bolt… that Lay-out seems quite rare unfortunately.
