It seems like there's heaps of chain guides fighting it out at the moment... Which 'aint a bad thing as the quality of them all is going through the roof.
Here's Gamut USA's latest offering, the 'P40'. Straight out of the box it's amazingly light (254grams) and looks beautifully neat and simple.
It's made up of a 10mm thick polycarbonate (plasticy) bashring to keep your ring safe (122g) and a 5mm thick alu back plate with poly top and bottom guides to keep your chain in place (132g). It's designed for 36 - 40 tooth chain rings and is available in pretty much every option of colour, mounting and crank arm you'll ever need. If it doesn't quite fit the bill there's another 4 guides in Gamut's range.
We'll be giving the P40 a thrashing over the next few months and letting you know how it copes. Look out for a first repo in Wideopen issue 7 and long term tests from then on...
