streetjibs Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 it looks sh!t hot and seems to be pretty common..just wondering if they're a decent system - was thinkin that steel spring arm bit cud lose its spring over time. Also how easy is it to set up?Thx in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abtrials Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 they are good mate just take a bit of time to set up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 They take about 2 seconds to set up. Easy to use, amazing standard of machining etc etc. They just work well. They are also durable (in my experiences) i sidehop left normally so when sidehopping to the right i have landed on it a few times and it said the following to me'abuse me, abuse me, mr travis you can't handle the power of kingz 74'then i cried.but seriously that happened.

Netherking Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 yeah really good, takes a minute to set up but when its there i run it with fun bolts now and the tensioner stays where you want it but before with my QR it used to slip and slide about but i moded mine a little, drilled a hole to fit the fun bolts and added a bolt to rest against to frame to stop it moving up land on it, bend it back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Kennard Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 how can you all be in favour of this??? ive seen one that was actually mangled, it wouldnt set up right at all, and the spring bent at a 90degree angle, was gay, he then sold it to dan for £3 who then butchered it and put a jockey wheel on.so im not at all sold by these, if you want a problem free system, buy a rohlof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Most seem fine, other than a couple I've seen, but I'd definitely consider one if I couldn't make one for next to nothing!Cheaper = winner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Garland Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Mine works fine, due to odd gearing though when I ran it up tensioning it pushed the chain onto my chainstay so I had to run it down tension.Easy to set-up, took a little bit of figuring on how to get it to up tension but it does work.

ben_travis Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 (edited) get your ass down to the abingdon DJ ride As much as i would like to, ill come if you pay my train fare / petrol / living accomodation. Now people dont go saying that is insensitive toward DJ because its not meant like that. Its just a long long long way from ABERDEEN (look that up on a map) to abingdon. One day ill be in that area though. Also think im in australia.Chris, how about a game of internet bell end conkers. Tell me how many times you can smack yours against a pc monitor before it breaks! (your bell end that is) Then ill do the same, the winner is the one who can do the most smacks ON TOPIC - KINGZ ***. if they are moving then tighten your QR / Funbolts more.

Dan-Walker Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 no it isn't dan, you butchered your and whacked a jockey wheel on itit is working fine. i love it, its not a lot different, i put a jocky wheel on oh no , cus dave wanted the other bit back, its still 74 kingz tensioner, just with out that roller thing, which would probs work better.
