I am waiting on a Pivot Trail 429 ISCG-05 and need to protect it. One trail I ride has a big rock that will take chunks out of the bottom bracket.
Thank you.

I've been running a DaBomb GSX3 on my Mach 5.5 for the past few years. It's been fautless. Cool Stuff:::DA BOMB

I have a MRP. It’s on its third Santa Cruz bike. The bikes break where the ISCG tabs are. The bash guard lives on

I have used e13, MRP, and Blackspire bash a in the past and recently and they are all good.

One vs the other usually comes down to availability when I need one.

The cost of a replacement Blackspire skid plate was nearly as much as a new complete unit a year or two ago so that might be a consideration.

Depending on your terrain there are some 3d printed ones out there which may be an option.

I have not used that style where I'm at...rocky af here and they would end up in bike Valhalla pretty quickly I suspect.

I have a One Up but its limited effectiveness on my new bike. These new bikes the bottom tube extends foreward from the bb quite a bit and is exposed beyond the bash guard. I do see a couple scuff on the guard so it does help, but want to make a cover for the downtube thats exposed. The oem thin foam rubber “protector” sticker is already peeling back, but i guess its worked so far as frame has only minor scuffs so far. Gone are my days of the 1/4 aluminum plate disc bolted to chainring that i would grind onto loading docks.

Nothing wrong with e13 products.
I've had their bash guard/chain guide on my bike for 18 months, and man; it’s taken some hits.
like - “high-centered on a granite Boulder” hits.
the guard looks ooks like a bulldog got a hold of it, but it’s straight, and the bb is undamaged.
