Smo™ Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 You son of a bitch! How'd you get the tension so perfect? I have to use a huge mech or nothing at all! Make me one of those doohickies, I'll make it worth your while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted June 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 Looks a bit neater like that, does it work the same then, or any better?Tensions exactly the same, but gives better chain wrap over the rear sprocket, plus its more out the way and there's no hanger to kill!CheersAdam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spode@thinkbikes Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Picture I took on the train the other day. Suppose I should get some decent shots really I'm riding hangerless too, but using a DMR. It means It does slacken off a bit in my set up over time, so I just have to loosen the wheel and tighten it. I don't know why I didn't think of running the rohloff hangerless too - I'll give it a go tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 When you say "hangerless"... Do you just mean that you're running a snapped hanger, but with the tensioner bolted onto the QR instead? If so I've been running that for a while now as a bit of a bodge, I'll get some pics later. And I agree it is much better, although when (if) my homemade tensioner breaks, it's a more expensive fix than just £6 for a hanger. It seems pretty robust though.I'm surprised no-one has done that to the rohloff before, it looks like such an obvious idea when you think about it. But you've done a good job of it anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spode@thinkbikes Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Yeah, I've done it before too using QR. In this case we are using the bolts though.I snapped my hanger and reverted back to my DMR instead of putting on the rohloff. I feel silly for it now!
