Chain guards were added after the 'photos were taken! Alas, this bike has languished, sits in my "junk room" now, batteries robbed off it to be used on something else. An E-bike turned out to be not so useful for me at the present. Once my daughters are a bit older and start to wander the area on bikes it may get refurbished (NiMh cells would make it a lot less heavy), but for now, RIP.
