Not had time to read through all the chain tension threads so sorry if this has been dealt with before.
No matter how tight I do up my rear SS wheel over a week it always starts to lose tension.
I just wondered if this is a common issue?
I know that chain pre-tensioners are a soloution but I don't see them much on track bikes.
Plus its more of a faff when fixing flats etc.
Any help/advice appreciated,
Ta
