Yes I know...this again.
I'm a frogs hair away from pulling the trigger on a Blur XCc. I'll be doing a full frame protection (i.e. Frameskins or something equivalent).
But I'm coming up short with good ideas for structurally protecting the downtube from the large, sharp rocks that are kicked up by the front tire, not just from knicks/scrapes.
I ride 100% in the desert (Phoenix of anyone cares), 2-3 times per week and we have LOTS of individual, sharp rocks that are constantly kicked up into downtubes.
Homemade is fine, but I'd be looking for suggestions on the raw materials.
Thanks in advance.
