Pro carbon racing pipe guard
Hey guys just wanted to see if anyone has tried any of these guys products? I bought it from the uk and had it shipped and still saved around 50 bucks over the p3. I've put a p3 on before and fit is close to that, just wondering how there products hold up(not that it matters now!) here's a few picsImageUploadedByTapatalk1353987866.472548.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1353987879.584278.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1353987892.884429.jpg

I have a ProCarbon pipe guard on my 2010 250EC and so far it seems to have done its job pretty well. I have over 100 hours on mine riding in a variety of terrain (and falling over a fair bit!). There are a few cracks starting to appear on the bottom edge where it takes most abuse and the usual scuff marks. My mate has a P3 guard on his 300 and it would be a tighter fit to the pipe than the ProCarbon version, which isn't necessarily a good thing as the gap allows the ProCarbon one to 'give' a little bit in a hit. His P3 also looks a bit 'burnt' and is starting to craze quite badly from heat I would presume. The P3 probably covers a bit more of the expansion chamber but not much. You do need to clean it out fairly regularly as it does trap quite a lot of dirt and can lead to the pipe developing surface rust (but also hides it). All in all it does what it says on the tin and like you say it's a good bit cheaper than the P3.

I have the Hyde racing guard which suits my riding style. Falling off a lot!

I had an E-Line break after the first hard hit from a rock, and have seen a bunch of others of various brands that are cracked and broken. I don't think carbon fibre is strong enough of a material. I went back to aluminum. Cheaper and better I think.
