Wethepeople Paragon Guard BMX Sprocket

The Paragon Guard includes adapters for both 19mm and 22mm spindles, making it compatible with most standard BMX crank setups. It uses a 5-bolt interface, so ensure your cranks are designed to accept a bolt-on sprocket rather than a spline-drive system.

Yes, the nylon and fibreglass guard is fully replaceable. This design allows you to keep the alloy sprocket body while swapping out the guard once it has taken too much damage from grinds and impacts.

It weighs 157g, which is quite light considering it includes an integrated guard. The CNC-machined 6061-T6 alloy construction keeps the weight low while maintaining the structural integrity needed for aggressive street riding.

While it is designed specifically for the impacts of street riding, it works perfectly fine for park or dirt riding. The guard provides extra protection for your chain and teeth regardless of the terrain, though it is most beneficial if you frequently grind ledges or rails.

The alloy sprocket itself is 6.5mm thick, and the nylon/fibreglass guard adds an additional 10mm of thickness. This profile is robust enough to handle heavy impacts without adding unnecessary bulk to your drivetrain.
