SRAM Aeroguard Bosch Gen 4

[billwarwick]

Anyone got a spare one of these kicking about?. No-one in the UK has any in stock. Part no is 11.6218.044.000 . The lugs have snapped off, which means using cable ties.
This is a high tech, cunningly designed item that ensures that after every ride you arrive home with at least 5 kg of mud trapped between it and the chain, which means that if you ride often enough, you will soon have collected enough dirt to build your own trail park in your garden.
Or do I even need it on the bike?

Unless you always wear flappy trousers, I would remove the Aeroguard and the inconvenience that goes with it.

PS: For complete information; I have never owned a Speccy Levo, so I have no inside knowledge. It just looks like something that would be the first thing I'd remove if I ever did buy a Levo.

Is that aftermarket? I have never seen a Levo with one fitted..............my guess is it is designed for commuters to protect their trousers. It has no function on a mountain bike!!

No , it’s on a Cube. It was on the bike from new. But if it’s not needed…happy days
