@cudak888 has a nifty chrome or polished aluminum chainguard he's offered that might work, especially with the shade of blue painted on it to highlight portions of the guard.

However, I'm really enjoying riding this bike as it is pictured. With the AM hub, which has the aluminum shell, it is a lightweight, fast, and energetic ride--- here on my flat coastal island. I also don't want to cover up the cool 1950s Schwinn crankset.


Should I make a chain stay slap guard to match? Of course, it would not serve any purpose other than aesthetics.
Absolutely yes. And I love the wrap and bags. They are tooooo cooolll!
