The Overguard is an exceptionally sturdy hub guard for Freestyle BMX bikes, crafted from heat-treated Chromoly steel to ensure a highly durable finish. It is CNC machined and boasts a distinctive design, allowing compatibility with most hubs, frames, and pegs available.
The inclusion of Chromoly offers an excellent balance of smooth sliding and strong resilience without costing a fortune. Use it on one side or both - whichever you decide, the Overguard provides reliable support.

Rides exactly how it should!p. christopheaubange, BelgiumVerified Buyer5 of 5Easy to install and once installed, the screw keeps it securely in place.P. anderssonAlnö, SwedenVerified Buyer5 of 5Very sturdy, like that it sits outside the dropout. Bought for my son's 16" bmx which has a little bigger rear sprocket, so I had to cut out a little for the chain to go freely. Works great now though!OXYGEN SAVVilleurbanne, FranceVerified Buyer5 of 5SolidM. BardiBourges, FranceVerified Buyer5 of 5perfectSam B.London, United KingdomVerified Buyer5 of 5I've been running a drive-side Overguard for a few years and decided to get a NDS one to replace a plastic guard.
These are solid and give great coverage. I love that they protect the droputs and the anti-roll pins are a helpful addition.
A mod: I've found that I can get the anti roll pin to match up to the drillings on some chromo pegs by removing the washer, so the head of the bolt sits proud of the front of the guard. It takes some messing about, but gives a bit of extra security against peg spin on the left side.
Running LHD - Tightening down the peg on the left side, I have to make sure the guard is properly positioned, otherwise it moves when tightening and can rub on the chain - not a big issue though.
I have some issues hanging up on the guard during double-pegs grinds, but that's my sloppy technique.
The design is great and will probably outlast me. They slide really well on all surfaces and will probably fit 99% of setups.Andrea MarinelliConcordia Sagittaria Venezia, ItalyVerified Buyer4 of 5A little expensiveChar TricksLetchworth Garden City, United KingdomVerified Buyer5 of 5This guard is made from the same metal as Thor’s hammer 🔨
