Most people have fashioned some sort of mount to bolt an old rotor to protect the guard. Rob made his own with lots of swearing and possibly bloodshed. "Max Power" make them. Ben used a frying pan and some jubilee (I think) clips.
The old rotor is probably the best and easiest way to diy it.
gonna give the old rotor option a go i think ...thanks
Where do you play? I've got a few bent rotors and some steel plates you can drill.
Hull - got some in a box i can use of an old mountain bike thanks for the offer tho
You guys should all sign up to lfgss.com too, there is a wealth of polo knowledge on there.
bit of a shit pic but one of mine here:
Ste/Anyone else got a spare mount like the one above?
what do you mean by mount? A GUARD OR ADAPTER? YOU CAN HAVE THIS WHOEL THING IF YOU WANT, IV GOT MAX POWER ONE NOW (SORRY FOR CAPS, ON A STUPID WINDOWNS COMPUTER AT WORK)
STOP SHOUTING STE! :P
I just bought a new 160 mm rotor, so the knackered old 180 mm i was using was gonna become a guard, but I'll take the whole thing if it's up for grabs yeah!
cool no worries, you QR or axle?
QR atm, but will swap for proper axle if I stick with 26" front.
This is drilled for QR cool
Andy I have a boner guard for sale if you want?
Actually scratch that, going to be ages before I get a new fork.
I'll have to google boner guard when I get home Chan, doesn't sound SFW.
Potentially, I might see how ste's homemade jobby works to start with.

Cool. I'm confused though, is Chan selling one, or Andy, or neither?
Chan is selling one, I thought about buying it and changed my mind, then I posted a picture as you didn't want to search for it at work.
It isn't compatible with Chan's fork because the dropout is behind the centreline of the fork leg so the disc mount is at more of an angle so the "hoop" part pinches the fork.
should be fine on yours though.
