We’ve hit enough rocks to know when it’s time for a fresh bashguard—and the MRP G4/G3 Skid for 36–40T setups is ready for round two (or ten). This direct replacement skid plate brings back full bash protection to older G4 or G3 chainguides, including G5 Mega compatibility. Whether we’re smashing park laps or hitting steep, technical lines, this durable nylon plate absorbs the blows that would otherwise wreck our chainring. Built from fiber-reinforced nylon, the skid glides over obstacles and shrugs off impacts without adding unnecessary weight. Installation is simple and secure, letting us get back to riding without overthinking maintenance. For riders running 36–40T chainrings, this is essential armor.
