kid bike chain guard (14" wheels)

thingiverse

My kiddo got a 14" bike and he broke the chain guard right away. I like his little fingers attached so I designed this up to keep him out of the moving parts. One version has friggin flames on it if your kid is radical enough to warrant extra flames. You'll need a large bed to print this (300mm), you might be able to get away with the part turned at an angle to get the full reach or chop the flat tail potion to just be a mounting plate and use a cheap, thin cutting board for the top or a 1" piece of PVC pipe cut to fit and riveted in place to go full wasteland warrior style. I just took the measurements of the existing part and will be reusing the bracket and drilling holes to mount it and using zip ties to secure the back. (drill backwards to melt a hole through the part for maximum awesome. V1 - Too thin, deleted V2 - Thickened it up and rounded surfaces better V3 - Removed much of the curve on the surface of the tail portion to reduce layer lines. I am not a designer, I'm a dad and I can use tinkerCAD ok. Please modify as you see fit.
