Chainstay Damage (Turbo Levo)

As the Turbo Levo Fat bike is somewhat unique to the Levos in terms of frame size/shape, this may not affect other Levo riders as much. Hit a big bump on a trail ride this morning and the chain popped up onto the chainstay. Unfortunately, the rubber that is meant to protect it, peeled and held the chain on the frame. This caused the chain to rip through all the way down to bare metal.

Sorry about the damage, I have seen some really excellent frame repairs thought won't even see it, good winter project.
