Abstract
To provide a universal design chain guide that can provide a position, track, and length of contact between the chain guide and the chain for optimal performance even when used with different types of chains. The chain guide includes a guide surface slidably guiding a running chain and at least one mounting part. The guide surface includes a first guide surface extending along a longitudinal direction and a second guide surface parallel to and protruding more than the first guide surface. The second guide surface protrudes from the first guide surface with varying heights along the longitudinal direction.
