• I've just bought a similarly bargain basement Inbred to handle singletrack duties so watching your build with interest! Having never ridden an SS with a chain tensioner (always has horizontal d/o's), can you still push hard on them or do they have a habit of shipping chains?

  • It's not actually rideable yet (well, not safely until brakes are sorted) and I'm already looking at 1x10 stuff (cheers for the pink bike tip @tallsam ) so I may never be able to offer an opinion on that :-)
    I would assume it's no different to a derailleur - its essentially just a sprung arm with a cog so basically a simpler version. I reckon it's destined for the bin soon though :-)
