Hard to say, as I don't have them both in front of me. The guards are one solid piece supported on multiple sides, so they're tough as nails in a crash. Frame sliders can catch and break, with only one point to slide on. The rounded metal edges of the guards will slide better. However, if the sliders are higher up on the bike, you might get more overall protection if they perform as intended. I've had sliders on a sport bike and they did the trick.
