Author Topic: Chain tensioner on Skyway TA (Read 606 times)

I have waited 2 years to complete my TA and want to get it right. I want to fit old school chain tensioners, should the 'washer' go in or outside the drop out?

I think they should go on the outside, if it's inside I would need force the drop outs apart a bit.

Cheers

Cheers, I think I will do the same. Running them on the inside would take too much force.

Outside, mate.

Outside.

Fitted them the right way, but the right one slightly touches the freewheel.

So I only run the left one. Pity that. But it still works.

could you stash a washer either side to slightly space it out?

if the freewheel is fouling the tensioner, make sure it isn't also catching the dropout
