Gamut USA has released its new P20 bashguard design. Like its P30 and P40 counterparts, the new P20 continues Gamut's promise of offering light, simple, and durable chainguides. The new P20's optimized design provides a better way of absorbing energy from impacts by flexing and distributing the impact forces away from critical drive-train components. This approach to bashguard design was originally established in 2004 with the release of Gamut's P40, the choice of 2008 World Cup Champion Greg Minnaar. The P20 accommodates 32-34 tooth setups. As part of Gamut's commitment to best in class rider support, the new P20 includes our lifetime product warranty and any support you need from the Gamut crew.
