Generation 2
October 4th, 2007 by ryanIntroducing the new G2 Chain Guide/Guard from MRP, the next generation in Chain Guides. The G2 showcases our patented (#7,066,856) integrated guard that allows the design to be super lightweight, without sacrificing chain retention, rigidity or protection of the chain and chain ring. The integrated guard fully protects the chain and also the rear pulley wheel. MRP is excited to add this new and innovative, patented guard technology to its Chain Guide line up that includes the original patented dual roller system that started it all.

Skid adds structural integrity to boomerang, and provides inner lower guide surface
Seamless transition when sliding over rocks and obstacles
Easy to install and adjust
Minimized chance of crunching the lower guide
