Saw Guide

A saw guide is a tool that ensures straight and accurate cuts when working on bike components like handlebars and steerer tubes. By using a saw guide, you can avoid uneven cuts that could compromise your bike's performance and safety, making your maintenance tasks easier and more reliable.

A dual-sided guide features two distinct sides for different cutting needs. One side is designed for traditional saw blades used on aluminum components, while the other side accommodates abrasive cutting tools for carbon fiber and composite materials. This versatility allows you to tackle various bike parts without needing multiple tools.

An open clamp allows for easy attachment and adjustment around the component being cut. Unlike closed clamps that can be cumbersome, an open clamp can be slid into position quickly, making it more user-friendly and efficient for precise cuts on handlebars and steerer tubes.

Aluminum components are lightweight and durable, commonly found in bike manufacturing. Understanding this material is crucial because it may require specific cutting techniques or tools. Using the right approach ensures clean cuts and maintains the integrity of the bike parts.

Carbon fiber is a strong, lightweight material known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, making it popular in high-performance bike parts. Cutting carbon fiber requires specialized tools and techniques, which is why the saw guide includes a special slot for abrasive cutting tools designed specifically for this material.

Yes! The saw guide is designed to handle both aluminum and carbon fiber components effectively. With its dual-sided feature, you can easily switch between cutting techniques, ensuring you have the right tool for each material, which enhances your bike maintenance experience.
