CRAZY EYES ASH Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 Evening ! After completing my 26" full build over the weekend with some massive help from Mr Mcmillan ( thanks Tom ) ), Im after some advice on the most suitable chain tensioner to fit a GU typhoon 07 ? Thinking of something fairly light as Id light to keep weight down, drivetrain is FFW 15/18 setup if that makes any difference. Muchas Gracias Ashley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Dunstan Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Using a 24/7 on mine, but would ideally be running a trialtech sprung. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WIGAN ?? Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 if you can get your hands on a 74 kings your in for a treat, anything will do doesnt really matter its only to take up the slack im using an old locked out derailleur on my pile, works fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY EYES ASH Posted October 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Ok chaps, sounds good. Have hunted high and low for a 74 kingz but there increasingly hard to come by. Was looking at this one http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/sprung_tensioners/echo_sprung_tensioner/c48p10600.html The trialtech looks nice also.

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Was looking at this one http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/sprung_tensioners/echo_sprung_tensioner/c48p10600.html I'd go for the Trialtech if I were you. The benefits of a dual-wheel type sprung tensioner definitely outweigh the anything you gain with the Echo one in my view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
