Gusset Bachelor Chain Tensioner Device

Not just for singlespeed conversions!

Although we've found this to be a very capable device for converting non-track or non-horizontal dropout frames into singlespeed flyers.

Ideally you need a track or horizontal dropout (or eccentric bottom bracket) to tension the chain on a hub geared bike (as you do on a singlespeed).

You will need a derailleur hanger on your bike but that's all. This works with bolted axles or q/r ones. The body of the tensioner bolts  into the derailleur hanger and then the axle nut/qr (special nut supplied) into the slotted part of the tensioner - allowing you to apply pressure on the chain and keep it taut. (see picture)

Note - not suitable as a tensioner on fixed gear set ups - don't even go there.

We strive to despatch all orders within 24 hours - during busy times this can sometimes be 48 hours.
