chain guide

Post by Mark.S »

When a 48 tooth sprocket is fitted, should the chain guide that hangs under the swing arm be modified/dropped down a bit, it seems to be wearing away my chain. I thought i had read something on here before but can't find it now.

Cheers

You did indeed read that. You need a drop plate on it, leisure trail have them I think.

Thanks all for the advice, should save me a few bob in chains!

Hell is up, I'm going to have a go at making something to night, if I can't do it I will get in touch with you.

Just copied the one in the link from Knackered, seemed quite simple to me.
