ethirteen Vario Enduro Chainguide Info

Vario Enduro Chainguide from ethirteen represents nearly two decades of chainguide refinement, shaped by real-world use at the highest levels of gravity racing. Built on a legacy of proven chain retention, the Vario system takes things further by giving riders meaningful adjustability and configuration options to suit modern enduro and all-mountain bikes.

The Enduro version is anchored by a durable alloy 3-bolt backplate and paired with an ultra-compact upper slider and integrated bashguard. This configuration strikes a smart balance between protection and efficiency, making it an ideal choice for bike park laps, aggressive trail riding, and enduro terrain where impacts are inevitable.
