I know lots of people like to use old tubes but I didn't have one so I got myself a old used tire and made myself a chainstay protector. First I cut the metal off and just used the rubber. I cut it to length with a razor blade. I then used a hole punch so I could tie 550 cord to tie it all together. I just did it about an hour ago so no testing but I think it will work.

That is...ummm, one of a kind. Dayem.

Yup did the same thing with my old tire after the bead failed. But I went a little more ghetto and just ziptied it around the stay.

Alligator stays. No one can accuse you of being a weight weenie.

Oh no, the original Ground Control! Was it a skinwall?

What are you using to punch the holes? They look nice and clean.

I used a leather hole punch.
