Magic gears are more likely to have chain issues.. in my case a lack of chain tension on my ss caused chain slippage on hard take-offs a few times before I had the sense to add a tensioner. Some people run magic gears fine but it will depend on the gear, the chainstay length and the design of the dropouts..
get old and large sprokets/chain rings and squeeze them inbetween the top and bottom bit of the chain...

Quite alot, but the total would be less than the normal price for a spinenergy.
Remember it doesn't have an axle in it which I am sure will be hard to find.

Phantom gears usually don't work either since you have to get chainline and tension right for the size of sprocket you use.. it's a kludge. I'd rather use a bodge (deraillern tensioner ftw!).
