K-Edge Pro Road Braze-on Chain Catcher GN Metal, CNC Aluminum with Adjustable Magnet

The K-Edge Pro Road Braze-on Bicycle Chain Catcher GN Metal is a CNC-machined aluminum device that prevents dropped chains at the front derailleur while offering magnet compatibility for popular power meters.

This compact braze-on chain catcher is designed for road bikes that use a braze-on front derailleur mount. Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum in the USA, it combines low weight with robust build quality and an adjustable magnet position so it can coexist with power meters that require a magnet. The unit ships with all required mounting hardware and fits most common drivetrain systems.

How does the chain catcher stop dropped chains?

The catcher creates a physical barrier between the largest chainring and the frame, intercepting a mis-shift before the chain can fall into the frame. Its precisely shaped guide works with modern derailleur geometry to reduce contact while remaining unobtrusive during normal shifting.

• Raised aluminium guide prevents chain from overshooting big ring
• Precision CNC tolerances ensure consistent placement and clearance
• Low-profile design minimizes interference with shifting

Will it fit my bike and power meter system?

The K-Edge Pro Road Braze-on is built for braze-on front derailleur mounts and is compatible with major mechanical systems from Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo. It also includes an adjustable magnet intended to work with many power meters that require a magnet for cadence or crank detection.

• Compatible with most braze-on front derailleur setups
• Includes hardware for straightforward installation
• Magnet position adjustable for Shimano, SRM, Quark and similar power meters (not compatible with Campy EPS or flat-mount braze-on clamps)

How is it made and what materials are used?

This chain catcher is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum for a balance of strength, stiffness, and light weight. Manufacturing in Boise, Idaho ensures tight quality control and consistent finishes across units.

• 6061-T6 aluminum body for lightweight durability
• Precision CNC machining for repeatable fit and geometry
• Finished to resist corrosion and stand up to road use

How easy is installation and maintenance?

Installation is straightforward: the unit mounts to the braze-on tab where a front derailleur would typically attach. The package includes the mounting hardware, and the magnet can be adjusted without specialized tools for alignment with compatible power meters.

• Ships with all required mounting hardware for most setups
• Simple bolt-on installation to braze-on tab
• Easy magnet adjustment for power meter alignment; low upkeep required

Who is this for: The K-Edge Pro Road Braze-on Chain Catcher GN Metal is aimed at road cyclists, racers, and serious enthusiasts who want to protect their frames from dropped chains and maintain reliable shifting under aggressive riding. It’s particularly useful for riders who use power meters that require a magnet and need a compact, race-proven solution from a brand trusted by professional teams.
