For reference, I installed this on a 2023 Kona Mahuna XL.When starting to install, I was worried it might be a bit too small to fit, but it went on, closed securely, fits snugly, and looks awesome.I was looking around for a rubber type chainstay protector, the kind that comes stock on many bikes, but I actually like the way this one looks more. Plus, it's easy to remove and reinstall for cleaning.Highly recommend if your bike didn't come with a factory chainstay protector. Even if you have your clutch engaged (which you should), that only minimizes risk of chain slap some - it doesn't totally eliminate it, so you do need something like this if you want to protect your paint and not hear the clanking on harder drops.
