Been working on the final bit for the ULH - a chain guard which I have never run on this bike. I've heard a few horror stories about thrashed up legs and backs so I'd thought it was time. I've always had a pet peeve about ill fitting chain guards that hang too far off the back of the sprocket - they drive me crazy (like those flat trailer fenders that look like...well, a crappy flat trailer fender). No offense if you run them - I'm the one with the issues here. Anyway I found this old bicycle chain guard at Eustis a few years back with a nice profile. I've been hacking on it for a few days now and finally have something I like. Should be in paint and on the bike for good by Saturday.
