Davey Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 The problem with Rolhof is most of us don't have £50 to spend on a chain tensioner, don't know about you but I think that's a ridiculous amount of money to spend on keeping your chain tight!Davey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 By all accounts the Rohloff works at least twice as well as a tension seeker/surly/others though... It is a lot of money, but I've not heard a single person complain about them (apart from the price, that is). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munch8987 Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Have a look at this home made chain tensioner, I'd say it's pretty cool. And it will be really hard to break, due to the small size, plus it is very close to the frame so there is hardly any part you can land on!Any one know where you can get one of these made up, or where i can get one from?thanksBen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janson Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 a local workshop is a good bet, or the shed if you're handy with a grinder!it's from poland, and i assume it is custom made = no place to get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
