Well, technically it does, and since the throw is less than a normal EBB cog swaps would be a little annoying as you may need to add/subtract a half-link to get the chain tension right.Johnny Chicken Bones said:I almost (almost) wish I'd used this instead of the sliders on my Mooto-X. Woud have looked cleaner and the chain stay length wouldn't change w/ cogs swaps.
Good point. Chain tensioning w/ crank removal would be a hassle several times a summer.Schmucker said:Well, technically it does, and since the throw is less than a normal EBB cog swaps would be a little annoying as you may need to add/subtract a half-link to get the chain tension right.
If you do a search, there are several people using it successfully. Back when the DH chain retention devices were popular, I used the lower pulley as a SS tensioner (similar to the Yess product, but without the spring):Johnny Chicken Bones said:Why haven't the BB chain tensioniners taken off?

Cool, good to see them in use. I knew they were out there and in use to some extent but on the SS page you can see about 100 shotty rear der tansioiners per simple clean BB style.itsdoable said:If you do a search, there are several people using it successfully.

It worked find. What I did not like was how close the idler pulley was to the tire, especially if it was large volumed. To me, the eBB or Eno Eccentric hub was better.
