The tensioner pulls the chain out and so there's noticeably fewer links about the sprocket - I've lost maybe third of wrappage, I think. Slipping is a sharp 'snap' sound when I stand on the pedals to push off
with my mighty nay awesome powersI think I'm going to look at setting the tensioner to push the chain in (remove the spring) and fix it in place. And make sure my chainline is straight as. I tend to do things by eye and well... [marty_feldman.gif].
