No hardware at all and no shims. Package came super beat up and random tape inside. Not happy

Wanted a lightweight guard and this one fits that bill perfectly. Obviously, the tradeoff for light is durability but since I just ride CC in the style of an old man it should be plenty robust unless I really screw up. If your building a bike to thrash then your probably not looking here anyways.Took a little work to get the spacing dialed in for the guide but otherwise very straightforward. There is zero chain rub on my 1x12 drivetrain with an oval chainring and zero chain drops even on double blacks in southern AZ.

I installed this on my Ibis Ripmo AF with an AB 32t oval. This fit perfectly right out of the box. The bash guard reached below the oval ring to further protect it from rock/log strikes. I didn't need to remove a thing to install.Highly recommend.

My order was missing the mounting hardware and the spacers/shims. The bash guard and chain guide look and feel like very high quality parts but my package is missing crucial hardware so for now it’s useless.

Installed without removing any components, and works great with my AB Oval chainring. Make sure you ride it in all gears to properly adjust as it rubbed a bit with going only by the instructions for fitting. Since getting the fit right, function is flawless. Super light, and protects those costly chains and chainrings.

Works well. I did have to trim one of the spacers to get things to line up right. Honestly that would be my only gripe with this. Include more spacers. This is set up on a 2018 stumpjumper.
