Bash guard ID???

[Nothin-fancy]

I just picked up this beefy bash guard. It appears to be machined out of a solid sheet and not pressed.
I'm just wondering if anyone has an idea of who made it?

No idea but I seem to recall.a wanted post for one that looked like this, maybe they know?

Is it a Rock Ring?

Yeah...closest I've found in a Rock Ring. Very similar but different

I couldn't find a WTB advert. I wish I would have. I don't know what I'll use them for now. The cranks on the bike I wanted to put this on are 94 bcd and not 110 like I thought. All my ugly deore lx cranks are 110 and the one clean set is the 563 94 bcd. Shouldn't have assumed...

It doesn't look like a rock ring that I've seen. It's pretty burly and it is definitely machined. And it's way nicer than Rock Rings. Probably just a small company lost to the sands of time.

I've never seen a RR like that. I've only seen the cheesey ones. It sure is close enough. Maybe just a different model? Mine is hard to fit with a outer chain ring. Wonder if it's a downhill one for a single chain ring???

A pretty similar one was offered by Crystal Design.
That's the Rock Ring as mentioned above by @DesertRyder

It looks like the same manufacturer to me.

You'd have to say it is very similar to the crystal design s one aside from the obvious differences. Maybe they made different versions for different types of crank, as the other two pictured have different cut outs but the ops pic has none?

The same but different.
