So I have a frame I'll be using fixed though it was made for gears, which means I'm left with the brazed-on (so, non-removable) front derailleur mount sticking out from the seat tube. It's got pretty sharp corners, so I'd like to put something on it to protect my leg - be it in a crash or whatever else might happen, just not a fan of sharp stuff sticking out!
Anyone got a good idea for a simple rubber 'cap' I could put on? I was thinking of fashioning something simple out of an old inner tube which would be fastened by a small bolt on the mount. Or are there other good ways of doing it / something else that lends itself to being used for this?
