Find everything you need for your bike at Escapa. The Rockstop Down Tube Protector is a durable, metal-reinforced polymer guard that prevents damage to the motor/battery housing and the lower end of the down tube. The impact of rocks striking the frame around the crank area is absorbed and dispersed, preventing cracks, dents, or breaks. Designed to fit many leading brands of e-bikes on the market, such as Specialized, Cube, Mondraker, Santa Cruz, etc.
Arched design: Frameguard’s overall curvature provides additional volume to ensure a perfect fit between the protector and the frame, regardless of the bike brand.
Impact-absorbing material: The high-impact-absorbing polymer is specially formulated to withstand heavy impacts from rocks and prevent damage to the factory-installed motor housing. Its flexible properties allow it to absorb the impact without damaging the frame behind it.
Metal plate: A molded aluminum plate inside the Frameguard reinforces the durable, impact-absorbing polymer material and also allows the Frameguard to bend to fit any bike frame.
Tapered design: It tapers toward the bicycle frame to provide a seamless finish and blend in with the bike.
Drainage holes: To prevent mud and debris from accumulating under the Frameguard, these drainage holes allow water to flow out when you wash your bike after a ride.
Internal channel: Allows water, mud, and debris to pass through.
Velcro fasteners: The Frameguard must be removable to allow for cleaning and maintenance of your bike. These strong Velcro straps offer an easy solution for quickly removing the guard without detaching the tabs.
Metal and adhesive tabs: The aluminum tabs are the ideal material for conforming to your frame and providing maximum hold when the high-grade adhesive is secured in place. Frameguard will not shift in wet, muddy, or harsh riding/cleaning conditions; however, the tabs will peel off with the heat of a hair dryer, without damaging the paint.
How does it fit the bike?
A reinforced metal plate not only adds extra Impact protection but also allows you to bend the Frameguard to conform to the shape of the bike frame for a perfect fit. Hayes has 4 self-adhesive mounting tabs that attach to the frame and connect to the Frameguard via Velcro straps. The Velcro straps hook through the tabs and the Frameguard to secure it to the frame. To remove the Frameguard, simply unfasten the straps.
