Cranks have only been out a day and there already showing signs of foot rub :'(

something's wrong here,,,what happens when the crankarm is positioned backward ???...no protection ???

allan-taylor64 (Apr 20, 2012 at 3:21)

Yeah what happens if your left foot forwards?

LlewVerge (Apr 20, 2012 at 9:23)

Left foot forward people are always excluded

cmacdougall (Jun 16, 2012 at 14:56)

Then you swap the bashguard to the other side of the crank...

LlewVerge (Jun 16, 2012 at 19:12)

Great thingking! cause theres totaly another chain for it to guide on the other side

FastDHR (Jun 16, 2012 at 19:35)

...he probably meant,,,rotate the bashguard 180° for lefties who always go left foot forward...

@Llewverge, I know you think you're being clever, but you're just making yourself look like an idiot. Just look at the picture and think about it for a second.

PS- I said other side of the _crank_, not the _other crank_ or other side of the _bottom bracket_

I read ur comment and didnt even have to look at the picture, totaly understood now. I need to expand my imagination.

if you ride left forward i proberly think you have a change to put it on the other side

They sell these.So if you want it on both sides, you can have it on both sides of the crank arm. and its still lighter than a full bash.
