Elegant solutions to a bashy problem.

Peter J:
The bashy "plate" just needs a bit of fab work and re-powder to fit  :coolsmiley:

pickle:
Ed, just take an angle grinder and sledge hammer to all the parts and make them fit together nicely  :daumenhoch:

FFS , it's only a fookin bike ! He's not painting a d1ck and balls on the mona lisa or glueing a big Wang on michaelangelo's David !
Your bike , your choice I say .
Anyhoo , I'm just off Into the shed to grind a gen 1 up to make some Brillo pads as we have run out  :D

Ed, Is the hole in the bash guard threaded? The one under the chain stays. I'm guessing not.
I can think of a couple of options. One is to use an expanding type bolt that will fit in the hole. Metal plate on top of the chain stay with bolt passing through. Clamps chain stays.
Or if the current plate on the bash guard with the hole in is not wide enough. You could just carefully grind that plate off make a new one that is wider and sits on the chain stays. But get a nut welded onto the new plate before it gets welded back to the bash guard with the nut inside the bash guard and have a plate and bolt from on top of the chain stay.
Or if the current bash guard plate is wide enough get a nut welded over the hole and same set up as above.
I really hope that makes some kind of sense to you.
Hope it's elegant enough for you.
