Bash guard prototype for e Sommet

[Rallysaloon]

Hi Rallysaloon. Just bought an E-Sommet VRS and I'm looking for a decent bash guard. Yours looks ideal, just wondering if you have produced any more of these as I'd definitely take one?

I do sell guards for Meridas but they will fit the Vitus. If you look at post #13 from early in this thread it show one on my mates Vitus. The fit is not perfect but it’s a damn site better than anything else out there. If you message me I’ll give you the link to where you can buy them.

I make heavy duty bash guard/skidplates for the Meridas but one of my mates has a Vitus E Sommet and as it uses the Shimano motor as well and he has fitted one to it. It really needs the position of the bend altering to fit better so if there's enough interest I can sort it. They are so tough I offer a free replacement if it breaks. I've sold over 100 and not had one break or dissatisfied customer. A few photos of the guard on the Vitus. View attachment 18139 View attachment 18139

I bought one of these from Rallysaloon and it fits my VRS perfectly. I’ve done 150 miles now and cracked the motor against a couple of rocks in that time. The bash guard supplied on the bike wouldn’t have made it passed the first impact.

Very pleased with the guard, thanks.

Perhaps, after I get the fit right and destruction test one to make sure its strong enough!

Did you get any further on this mate ?
CRC have realeased the e7000 version and its shit! I like the looks of yours alot!

@Rallysaloon bought one of your bash guards, very impressed until I went to fit it. It doesn’t seem to fit an E7000 motor ??‍.

How easy is it to heat it and shape it a bit more?

If you have a heat gun, it is quite easy to bend. It does take a while to get enough heat into it to bend it.
