yeah...would love to help, can't understand what you're saying though. Get a native english speaker to read over what you've written before you post another, more careful version.

to stop the chain hitting the chain stay you will need to shorten your chain. put the chain on the biggest cog on the rear of the bike and break the chain with a proper chain breaker and rejoin it so it is as short as possible. depending on whether you use your gears or not you can even make it as short as possible on your trials gear, keep using your derailluer though.
for the bashring, i believe the rhino ones are different to all others, so you may have to make your own. if you cant do that you may have to buy some new cranks which come with a bashring or that are compatible with aftermarket bashrings. good luck

sorry PT, T-F.co.uk style spelling and grammar is my pet...rock.
I think Alex is right when he says that the cranks which come on the rhino are incompatible with most bashrings on the market. If you take it to a bike shop they may be able to tell you the BCD (bolt circle diameter) of the cranks. Once you know this, you can start looking around on the web and ebay for a bashring to fit. You may end up making one though, or replacing your cranks as I suspect the cranks are a completely non-standard Sugino BCD. For a super bodgy deal, get a middle ring (32 or 34 tooth) of the same BCD as you cranks, put in in between your small chainring and your cranks and grind the teeth off it. This requires you to have enough space for the two chainrings and the chain spacing, but works OK for a while.
Alex is probably right about you shortening your chain, sounds like the spring tension in your derailleur is a bit low as well. Turn the B-tension screw, (phillips or flat head screwdriver) located behind the securing bolt of the derailleur, clockwise a few times.
if you bought the bike new, why didn't you get the bashring with it? The rhino 26 does include a bashring, I'd hate to think some slimebag has ripped you off.

Yeah...he probably got jibbed. I remember riding once, and a fella with a brand spankin new white Rhino 20" came up to me (didn't know much about trials, thought it was some kind of BMX) asked him how much he paid for it....."oh I got it $1200, it's a bargain huh! " he said...
