Morning All

Does anyone know where I can get some clear crank protectors from for a set of XT M770 cranks please?

I've had a trawl through google and ebay but cant find anyone who does this model.

Thanks

Email Invisiframe. They have been very helpful for me in the past. Might be able to create you a template.

Have you tried Slikgraphics? http://www.slikgraphics.com/collections/protective-decals/products/crank-covers-to-fit-shimano-xt-cranks-m770

They do specials so may be able to produce something clear for you. Might not reply to emails mind you...

I actually made some for my XTR's by cutting a card template to shape (bit off here, bit off there etc) then used some clear vinyl from a mate who does graphic printing.

Had thought of Slik but the customer service side put me off tbh.

Good call on Invisiframe, will drop them a line.

A seller on eBay says they can do a template but would need to send them one of the arms which I'd rather avoid.

Definitely invisiframe. I think I've got a set that I never fitted although can't be certain what XT model they are. The chap (Ian?) at invisiframe is excellent.

Crankskins.com.
Got some black ones to tart up a badly scuffed set of XT cranks. Not horrendously expensive, they actually send 2 sets in case you cock up installing plus a set of clear and a load of random stickers (things like shock pressure and reach/stack stickers).
Took a week or so to arrive mind.

Invisiframe don't do M770 but suggested using a Sram XX carbon set that is quite wide instead.

Will check out crankskins 🙂
