Headley Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Personally I'd go for a bash plate as it it offers slightly better protection and also if you land on your bash plate then it'll be easier to keep your balance. I think a 74 kings will fit on your cranks but don't take my word for it I may be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 (edited) spend your money on something better, which will make a noticeable difference to the performance of your bike. brake booster, stem, money towards a new frame, etc.more helpfull point, i found my 74kingz was really thick and it + my eno destroyed the bottom bracket-tool-bit.

Muel Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 A bashplate gives more protection, and a ring is lighter.It's up to you really, but I'd upgrade the cranks first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil Jsy Chris Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I would go for a bash plate as it protects your frame more and also bash rings make you go to one side when you are resting on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantpro Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Bashplate is much better.It protects your framealso when you have a ring, you land to on a tilt to the left.which makes it more awkward to get up off it!Hoped this helped.Dan.
