Pro Road Chain Catcher Installation Instructions
(K13-002)

Description:

The K-Edge Pro Road Chain Catcher series is designed to eliminate chain drop on the lowest chainring due to hard shifts, cross­chain shifting and or rough terrain while riding.

New features implemented over the original K13-001 include: compatibility with more frame types, lighter weight, easier installation,
chain snag reducing chamfers to chain side face, independent adjustability from front derailleur, and update to overall aesthetics.

Compatibility:

The K13-002 Pro Road Chain Catcher series is designed to fit braze-on front derailleur mounts (i.e. hard mounted to the frame with
the vertical adjustable slot and front radius) only with a double chainring crankset

Some frames with a hard mounted braz e-on and vertical slot may have a 'flat' front face where a radius should be, this type o f mount
will NOT

work with the mounting syste m of this chain catcher. If you do have this type of frame please contact K-Edge Support for a

possible solution/adapter.
Some braze-on clamp adapters may not be compatible with the mounting system of this chain catcher, a K-Edge Braze-On Clamp

adapter will be released in the near future to accommodate the new mounting system. If you need a braze-on mount adapter
contact either your local bike shop for a solution or K-Edge Support for ava ilability.

The K13-002 Pro Road Chain Catcher series is currently NOT compatible with Campagnolo EPS Front derailleurs at this time. An
adapter will be released in the near future.
