So I should perhaps order the DMR without the tensioner, eg, this:

As opposed to this, which comes with it:

However, I will look into Surly, because I've heard good things about their front chainring.
In terms of getting the bike to do the work, I still wouldn't mind getting the kit myself - as I will want to do maintenance later, but it is still a decent thought if I want the job done ASAP.
I will go and have a look at the cranks now to see if I can find out the relevant info.
Cheers
