Review on SHIMANO CP-FH53 Spoke Guard for 36H, Clear Freehub by Fred Novak

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works where aftermarket safety devices don't

I changed gears on my road bike to make climbing easier. My old guard collapsed after about 10 years of use. I bought a guard that looked exactly like Shimano; however, it was about 1 mm thicker. This was enough to bind the gears on the spokes and prevent the freewheel from working. I switch to Shimano and everything works fine.

Pros
  • Ease of Use
Cons
  • So-so
