Favorite Trails: ...
Chainguide- E-13 DRS (dual ring system). Let's you run two rings, small and middle ring. Never once had my chaing fall off in 6 months of using it. Right now on Jenson it's only $105... http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/ ... Guide.aspx

Bashguard - Raceface or E-13. Personal preference and color will make the deciding factor for you on these.

I have one of these and really like it. You won't be able to beat the price! Works good with a blackspire stinger..... Budgest setup comes in under $40 :)

Since my 06 Nomad frame doesn't have ISCG mounts, I went w/ a Blackspire Stinger for $20 as my Raceface Atlas FR cranks came w/ a bashguard.

If it is for your Rockhopper then here's one to consider...not a guide though - I have one on my Pitch

MRP Triple Bashguard - Fits outside the third ring and protects all 3 rings
