This one is always divisive. Some people think they’re ugly and useless, others think they’re good to keep on to protect your spokes in the worst case scenario.

I just got back from the garage from cutting mine off (and unfortunately it wasn’t a low quality/thin one so it took forever). I’m not against them per se but after about 1200km of riding, I noticed that it started to rattle and it was annoying me.

What do you guys/gals/pals think of them?

    This one always gets a chuckle out of me when I see how strongly people feel about it. Obviously if it’s causing any issues while riding like in your case it’s gotta go, but outside of that I don’t even notice them on bikes half the time. I had to check my bike just now to see if I have mine on (I do 😅)
