DyedBro has announced that its gravel and all road frame protection kits are now available.
This new kit has been designed specifically for gravel and all road bikes, featuring a new shape and the inclusion of fork protectors.
The brand said: “Gravel bikes can be subject to as much wear as mountain bikes – the carrying of luggage, rough terrain and general adventuring can all take their toll. As we have been riding our adventure bikes more and more over the last few years we felt it was the right time to make a kit just for them.”
Kits are in stock now and ready to ship. Each kit contains 12 pre-cut sections.
1. Downtube, measuring 42.5cm in length and 7.3cm in width
2. Top Tube, measures 53cm in total when used with the 2 sections designed for longer tubes. Generally a M/54cm bike will use just the large section, an L/XL bike may require the extra bits
3. Seatstays x 2, measuring 39cm in length and 2.4cm wide
4. Chainstay x 1 at 9cm long and at it's maximum, 4.2 cm wide
5. Forks x 2, again measuring 39cm in length but at 5.3cm in width these work with a wide variety of forks
6. Three additional round patches – for cables rub
7. Also included is an installation tool
