Nice write-up and pics!
There are a couple schools of thought about the chainguard bolt/nut. Captive nuts are nice, until they aren't; ie. when they spin inside the parent material. That usually causes swearing...... The bolt/nut method GG uses avoids that problem. It may not be quite as nice to look at, but is a practical method that works. I like the proper hex cap screws on the triples. I have Allen head bolts on my '12 & they're not the best type of fastener for that application. |

Ya I've fought with captive fasteners before, so I get that. But since this is a small sub $50 part it would be easy to replace if the captive nut ever spun. The looks part isn't what bugs me.. Its annoying to have to use a 10mm nut when I should be able to do it with just an 8mm socket. Maybe some engineer who's smarter than me knows why it's this way.. Maybe it was a bean counter decision... Either way I'm not a fan of this one.
