Hey all. Just treated myself to an 06 Stinky, and one of the first mods I want to do is to fit a proper single ring chain guide. Just wondered what fits, and what others have used. I'vE got my eye on this http://www.blackspire.com/chain-guides/dsx-c4 but have no idea if it fits or not!

If you're running a dual ring setup, I'd go for this. I've got it on my big bike and it works great. You'll need to get the one that sandwiches between the BB and NOT the ISCG mount version though.

Already got one of those on my Enduro :thumbsup:
Was really looking for a single ring setup for the Stinky, as its gonna be my downhill rig. Its more than enough bike for the UK!

If you get an ISCG guide, you can purchase a e-type adapter for it. You clamp the adapter between the frame and the bottom bracket cup, and essentially acts like ISCG tabs.

e13 and MRP both make some great guides. I've had good luck with both.

It fits! Still can't believe just how easily it went on. No mods, no messing around!
Works perfectly...

Just ordered mine as well. Can't wait to try it.. Ride-this had them for $22.95.

One thing to keep in mind is that Ride-This has the single chainring rollers on theirs. If you want to run a dual ring, you'll need to get the different roller.

Actually, the stinger only comes as a dual ring and can be modified to work on a single ring with another guard plate. I checked with Blackspire to be sure. Here was the response.

"Yes! You are correct. For your Stinky you need the E-type(BB mount) version of the Stinger. Yes, we only sell it in the dual ring configuration....it can easily be converted to a single ring setup just by using the Blackspire Blackguard plate in place of the granny ring."

Thats the DSX-C4 on my Stinky BTW... Although the stinger will also fit straight I'd say
