I’ve never had issues with my singelator, but then I’ve never put down WATTS! I take it you’ve tightened the tension nut up properly and locked it off. Is the pulley guide set to single speed chain width or 8 speed. If that’s on the wrong way round it makes a difference. Other than those things are can’t suggest anything.

Chain tensioners.
I have a surly singelator (thanks OG donator), but yesterday when I was pUTTTING dowN THE srs WATTS at Herne Hill, the chain was skipping and clunking and making a right old racket. The chain slipped off the front once in the warm up and then once on the way home.
I could get a new spring so it pushes up, but has anyone got any pictures/insight into removing the spring and ziptieing it into position?
