What have you done to your bike today?

Oh noes - how do I find the valve - it's invisible!

Finally got the cranks and BB installed, but now I ran into a new problem. The bashguard I have from Wolf Tooth doesn't play nice with the XTR crankarm. It's keyed correctly, but it doesn't lay flat, so now I'm slumming it with no bashguard and a SLX spider/chainring. New pedals are sexaysexay.

Do you really need the bashguard? Does that XTR crankset use the 104BCD?

Afaik, wolftooth doesn't make a non-bash Shimano mount. Kinda dumb, but not enough for me to do anything/complain about it.

The SLX/XT rings wear like iron (cause they are 😉), and the XTR is super tough from the cold forging, so it's not like the aftermarket stuff is necessary...even if the mounting system is slick.
