Salsa Tributary Chain Stay Protector
Best durable frame protection for serious gravel and mountain bikers.
This is the easiest insurance policy for your frame’s finish, silencing the annoying racket of chain slap while preventing permanent trail scars. While it lacks the universal fit of generic wraps, the tailored geometry and integrated cable routing make it a seamless, permanent upgrade that looks like it came from the factory.
