When is it going to be available?
New E-13 LG-1
- Thread starter 4xBoy
- Start date
Today according to QBP. But like the BooBar that was supposed to be available two weeks ago, the correct answer is dont hold your breath.
Haha, I had one of those on order as well.
When you order one of these new guides, the day before it gets to you, a magnet will come in first. You attach the magnet to your bottom bracket.
Then the next day when the guide comes in, it will fly across the room and attach itself to your bike. This is a really cool new feature to assist the retards that can't set one up.:biggrin:

But what happens if the retards can't get the magnet on the bb? Then what?
Jeremy, I was just wondering the other day where you had been / what you've been up to.. 
The LG1+'s are pretty close, but not shipping just yet. Right now our USA production line is full bore on SRS+ systems. We are between 2 and 4 weeks out on LG1+'s depending on how fast we can work.
Hope this helps,
Dave

Don't care who you are, that's funny right there.
'cept neither the plastic guides, not the alu backplates are magnetic. Just sayin'...
They are dw-force magnets.
The new LG1 does not use the "Taco" per say. It uses a new direct mount bashguard, and it is the only one that will fit on the guide. It is an integral part this time.
but does it come in pink yet?
Everything will be fine as long as they don't have the magnet in their pants pocket when the guide shows up....
ahh man Fraser why you have to go and get all serious on this thread.
That is so freakin horrible. Way to totally make my pants pocket joke have a sobering reality to it.

What's with the jagged, bloody piece of metal in between the two magnets?
Dude, that's the guy's fingernail.
GEAH!
Did not want to see that. DID NOT.

So we have a few more weeks until people start complaining that they can't install it?
I don't get why its so hard to install a chainguide. If you're not smart enough to figure it out, or at least read the instructions, I doubt you're smart enough to even get a chain installed on your bike and need a chainguide in the first place.

I know, but there was a pic in one of the print MTB publications that showed and LG1+ with the lower guide mounted on an aluminum backplate like it is used in the SRS+ and no taco. They said it would weigh 99 g.
Hey guys,
The LG1+ comes with a taco. Its integrated into the system. There might be a way to cross the LG1+ with the SRS+, but I wouldn't imagine much weight savings (if at all) considering how light the direct mount bashguard is already.
I'm also reiterating that the LG1+ is still 3-4 weeks out. The SRS+ will be shipping next week.
We're also planning on making an installation video set for both the SRS+ and LG1+. It really is amazing how simple these guides are to install, between all the torque settings etched on the backplate and slider adjustment markings on the LG1+. The SRS+ is a set and go affair.
Cheers,

Since the LG-1 comes with a taco, will the SRS come with a burrito or a relleno?Extra crispy with tomato and the hottest fresh salsa known to man.
Man, I'm hungry now.
No you got to keep it authentic, it comes with a Spicy Crunch Wrap Supreme
Umm,.. hey guys i have a question.
I swallowed my magnet on accident. I heard it can pinch my intestines closed or something? Is that bad? What should i do? my guide won't be here for 2 weeks though.

Who is this "Dave" guy that knows all?
Dave
Stay away from the front of the fridge, you could get stuck and get a cold belly.
One last question about the new guides;
Can it be installed with out removing the cranks?
The important question is:Can it be installed with out removing the cranks?
Will it void my King headsets warranty?
I do believe that he's joking. I also believe that he works for Hayes Bicycle Group, hence the username. Anybody in the bicycle industry has got to know who DW is.You're joking right
Dave.....dw.....dw link....Dave Weagle?
And about the new lg1. Is there a confirmed weight, with all hardware (icsg bolts and everything)?
