Anodised Adamant Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 They are supposed to be good just like anyother chain tensioner!the way they fit on is between the rear hub andtheinside of your drop out the reason being is its out of you way when riding!hope this answers you question Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnyMilton Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 (edited) Hey mate, well I have them on 2 of my bikes, my DJ and my trials bikes, and so far they are holding really well! The one on my trials bike is taking all the abuse i give it and still not snaping or bending, and the one on my DJ is just downing what its ment to do and hold the chain tight! but before I got them i was going throw quite a lot of DMR ones and other cheap ones! SO when I saw the 74kings, i thought it was a good idea because of the spring reaction, and it was also my favorite thing 'Cheap and Cheerful', so i gave it ago, and I havnt looked back, I really do recomend one! The way they fit on is by going betweeen your hub and drop-outs, and then you simply adjust to where you need it to go! Hope I have Helped!Johny Edited April 14, 2007 by JohnyTrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnyMilton Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 (edited) Well if it gets fitted right, it will work brillant! It takes a good minute to fix it on, as the first part is really fiddily to fix on to between the hub and drop outs! Well thats what you think of it, but I say its better than the DMR ones, reason being they kept bending or snaping the mec hanger when it got hut hard, but with the 74King it doesnt need to be put on to the mech hanger, so if your out riding and hit the 74King you will not break the mech hanger, therefore saving money in the long run!Johny Edited April 14, 2007 by JohnyTrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
