squince Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 (edited) FRESH PRODUCTS DEFIONATLYRight, before i got FreshProducts snail cams i used to have to pull my wheel back with the smoothed edged ones twice a day on a ride, but nkow solid in place thanks to the notches in FreshProducts snail cams.how it works is as u move the snail cams it puts pressure against the bolt casuing the wheel tobe psushed back.Not sure if they will fit your t-pro though cheers andy Edited December 31, 2005 by squince Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Yeah they'll fit the T-Pro no problem as they have the holes in the dropouts for themto be fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jsy Ben Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 cant you just move the wheel b ck or down abit instead of getting the cams?no, the forces acting on your back wheel when landing, even from very little height are more than enough to move your wheel backwards therfore losing tension in your chain and then losing energy through the slack chain when kicking , if you see.my explantion of how the snail cam works...snail cams width varys from "top" to "bottom" , meaning if you push the snail cams right round to the "top"there is more distance between the screw in the frame and the snail cam(these fixed screws aka allen key bolts, are available to t-pros 05s)this increased distance moves the wheel back furthervice versa if you have the snail cam on the "bottom".
