jsychem Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Is anyone else having problems with snail cams slipping because whenever i kick my driveside cam seems to slip slightly letting the wheel turn. Is there anyway of stopping this apart from getting chain tugs?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flubber Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 nar i dont think there is mate. i had exactly the same problem then got some chain tugs and havent had the problem since. get some chain tugs or them snail cams with the grooves in are meant to be quite good.Flubber:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Breeze Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 (edited) You could get chain tugs but from my expirence they always bend i was actually thinking of making the switch to snail cams. They seem so much easier to set up you wheel and brake. If you get the one's with the little grooves in they should work fine in theory? anyone else had this problem with snail cams?

Matt_Tupman Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Sorry but you can't beat the mighty snail, compact easily setup and lightweight. Just file some groves into them if they're smooth but not to big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsychem Posted July 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 Thanks guys, i think I'll get some beefy chain tugs to prevent the wheel from moving and the chain tugs from bending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
