Sprocket guard
A sprocket guard assembly comprising a sprocket having sprocket radial spokes, and having teeth on an outer perimeter, the teeth disposed in a plane CL1, each sprocket radial spoke communicating with a first cylindrical surface, a circular member having circular member radial spokes, and each circular member radial spoke communicating with a second cylindrical surface, a collar having an outer cylindrical surface, a fastener engaging the collar, the first cylindrical surface and the second cylindrical surface engaging the outer cylindrical surface, all coplanar in a plane CL2, and plane CL1 is offset from plane CL2.
Devices for retaining a bicycle chain on a sprocket
A device for retaining a bicycle chain on a sprocket includes a base plate defining a plurality of fastener openings centered on an origin. A center of each of the plurality of fastener openings is disposed at a first radial distance from the origin. The origin defines an axis extending substantially orthogonally from a plane defined by two lines extending from the origin and at least two centers of the centers of the plurality of fastener openings. A first guard is secured to the base plate and includes a first guard retaining surface including a first curved surface defined by a second radial distance from the axis that is greater than the first radial distance and a first guard guiding surface having a first end adjacent the first guard retaining surface and a second end distal from the first end. The first end is disposed at the second radial distance from the axis. The second end is disposed at a third radial distance from the axis. The third radial distance is greater than the second radial distance. A second guard is secured to the base plate and includes a second guard retaining surface including a second curved surface defined by the second radial distance from the axis. A second guard guiding surface has a first end adjacent the second guard retaining surface and a second end distal from the first end. The first end is disposed at the second radial distance from the axis. The second end is disposed at a fourth radial distance from the axis. The fourth radial distance is greater than the second radial distance.

Composition, method and use
The present invention is directed to a wax with graphene compositions offering surprising benefits in reducing bicycle or motorbike chain lengthening, particularly in off road environments with high dirt and water levels such as during mountain biking or off-road biking. The invention is further directed to a method of preparing such compositions and to the use of such compositions on bicycle or motorbike chains.

Chainring Dust Plate and Mount
A dust plate mounted to a bicycle's downtube located in front of the chainring (crank) that reduces the amount of airborne particles from entering the drivetrain caused by the forward moving front tire while maintaining access to service the crank and/or chain.
