Cheers Joosh Went for short version of the tensioner and for 16 tooth as I've got a 22 chainring I got the chain in halfords..it's a clarks single speed Here's how it looks http://imageshack.us.../imag0200b.jpg/ (the tensioner needed pushing down more..if you get it I recommend putting a rubber washer to hold it really still) Edited June 20, 2011 by Tioz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshm1991 Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Awesome!! then I think thats what i'll do!! you said it was a clark single speed chain from halfords?? Just I work at halfords and can get discount so if you can tell me the one it is, i'll get it bought!! Also, thanks for putting a picture up, I was starting to get confused on how it would look when it was fitted!! Thanks again!! Joosh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joosh mmm I think it was called clarks single speed..it cost about 15£ While I was there I also bought a tool kit for 15£ and did it all myself..it's actually quite an easy job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endohopper Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Nice to see newer riders helping eachother out - this is how the scene grows Superb chain wrap in that pic Tioz , no way that's slipping . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a bit too much I've seen the tensioner tends to slip up a bit so I'll need to put a rubber washer between it and the dropoff to hold it nice and still I've just checked the chian and it's called Clarks Half Link Gold 1/8 Single Speed Chain Edited June 21, 2011 by Tioz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
