David Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Hi all,I'm in a pretty bad mood so ill make this to the point...I have fitted the following brand new parts:18T Surly Cog22T Blackspire ChainringSurly Singulator TensionerKMC Kool Chain (3/32)I cannot for the life of me get the chain to stop skipping over the Surly cog.I have:Taken as many links out the chain as possible.Tensioned up and down.Replaced the tensioner with a rear mech.Checked the chain line.Checked the tensioner alignment.Checked my hub (CK)I really don't know what else to try, its certainly very frustrating. I cannot stop the chain riding up over the teeth of the Surly sprocket.Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest itstroy08 Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 most likely you need a thicker chainlook at a standard 'proper' bmx cain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted August 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 Problem solved, I accidentally picked up a 1/8 Kmc chain instead of a 3/32 from work, now all working! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
