Quit playing around with cog spacers. Switch to single speed with ease. The CNC machined aluminum spacers offer lateral support and the built-in offset optimizes chainline. Supplied w/ 16 & 18t cogs and lockring.

Simple, four pieces, well made, cheap

Two chainline adjustments
Similar Products Used:

Bike Setup:
Trek 8500 frame, 32/16
Bottom Line:
If it works, it works. The chainline is real close, nothing out of place. Got lucky, with a half link no tensioner needed. Can see why it wouldn't work in every case, but it's clean. For $25, take a chance.

This kit is the ultimate in ease when converting to a SS. I'm building my SS from the ground up and I went for this kit from the start. It fits perfectly on my Shimano hub and even though it only came w/ two spacers I got the perfect chainline on the first try. I dont know how it's gonna hold up over the long haul but as for the initial install it's excellent. Plus it's 20 bucks. How do you go wrong?

Duration Product Used:
Tested or demo'ed only
Price Paid:
$20.00
Strengths:
The kit looks clean and well made.
Weaknesses:
It does not work on my rear hub made by SuperGo.
Bottom Line:
The spacers look strong and clean as well as the 2 clogs included. They slide on the hub with no problems... but when come to tighten the locking ring, it prevented my hub from spinning freely! =/ Not sure if the thread of the locking ring is too deep or the hub wasn't compatible. It's a wheelset by the old SuperGo.. Method XC. I'll see if Gausset has a customer support dept. to help me get this thing working.. or I'll try Renen's spacer system next.
