A nice lightweight yet tough chain retention device. The machine work is second to none and a lot of thought went into this unit. Very smooth running and virtually silent.

Review
This is a solid chain guide/bashguard combo that kept my chain in place consistently and was great for sliding my rig over large logs, rocks, et. all. This guide just does its job without any attention, and that's how I like it!
