  1. Hi,

    Could anyone tell me which diameter DogFang I need for a C50?
    31.8 or 34 mm?

    Greetings, Derk

    I got a 31.8 for a c40 and it was too small, so I cutted it and fixed
    with a (long) zip tie. Works well!
    I think c50 tubes are fatter.

    Dear Jay,

    A plastic circle tightened around the lower seat tube with a
    curved fang-like protrusion that is turned until it's almost
    touching the smallest front sprocket--keeps the chain from
    falling off the top and down onto the bottom bracket:

    The picture shows how the protrusion looks like a dog's
    fang.

    Thanks. A) A google search of DogFang didn't give the right answer, but
    Dog Fang does. B) I thought I knew Sheldon's site better.
