Chain slap is the noise created from the slack in a bicycle’s chain giving the chain the ability to slap against the drive side chainstay and seatstay. This slapping noise is annoying, loud and creates distractions while riding. It also damages the frame’s paint job, integrity, and the chain itself. You can minimize these damages with the use of RideWrap’s Chainstay Armor. For more information on the benefits check out our article on Chainstay Armor.
