I suppose its possible to ding the frame through the plastic plate if you case out really hard on a rock, but I have never done it and I ride really gnarly stuff. You can bend anything if you hit hard enough. I hope to get working on my bike soon, once I'm cleared by the doc to pull on wrenches. I'll post some pics of the delrin pipe sections added to the frame rails. I don't think its a neccessity though and I'd certainly get the Hyde.

The Mecca system is not that good, The plate it-self is good but the mounting bracket sucks....it's thin and bends easily.
This causes the plate to constantly loosen up.
I tossed the mounting bracket and substituted it with the works connection brackets I had off an old CR skid plate.
