Pros: Easy to use Velcro. Stretches to size.

Lizard Skin

I bought this thinking jumbo would be good for 29er. But, it was too wide for steel chainstay. Ended up cutting and using tie straps. It will protect your chainstay from anything it comes in contact with.

Pros: Easy to install

Cons: Not clear on sizes

Purchased this for a FS mountain bike that had no chainstay protector. My frame chainstay is very large in diameter, but this stretched to fit. Also, after all the mud and water, the velcro has not failed once.
Very happy with this

Pros: Fit large tubes, super strong velcro, keeps chain quiet

Cons: None

Chainstay protectors are a must

It's amazing how much noise gets cancelled out of your ride once you slap a LizardSkin around your chainstay. They protect your paint and let you enjoy your ride.

Pros: Easy to fit, protects paint, silences chain slap, varying sizes for varying sizes

Cons: none

Lizard Skin Frame Protectors

The Super Jumbo fits bigger chainstays. It does exactly what its designed to do. It protects the chainstay and quiets down the chain slap

Pros: Fit is great with the jumbo. Measure the chainstay and make sure you get the right size. Protects and quiets like its suppose to.

Cons: I wish it was a little longer. Most chainstays are around 17".

Simple installation

I've used various methods to protect the drive side chainstay of my bikes - different bar tape, old inner tubes, duck tape, etc. This is the easiest install and protects well. Velcro attachment make removal easy.

Pros: easy to install and removal

Cons: grit caught underneath can damage frame finish

gets the job done

I use electrical tape at either end to transtion to the frame tube and that helps keep it in place. I ordered the super jumbo for my Niner Air 9, fits good.

Works well!

This thing is easy to use and works great. Just wrap it around and velcro the ends together. Can be trimmed for length. I did and it hasn't affected it at all. Is neoprene like material, so protects well and cleans up easily.

Pros: Great no nonsense product

Cons: none

Super jumbo size fits my fat, carbon chainstay. Keeps chain slap noise to a minimum and protects the finish of the frame. You can cut one in half and use it on the lower portion of the seatstay to prevent upward chain slap/damage.

Pros: Quick and easy to installed.

Cons: It would be nice if the product description listed the usable circumference for the various Lizard Skin sizes.
