well made item,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Shimano Alfine Chain Tensioners (Sports)
This chain tensioner has limited application, but is just the right thing when you need it. Application to multi-speed hubs with single or multiple front rings is good. It can also be used in recumbent drivelines to take up extra chain and as an idler. Spring is really stiff compared to derailleurs. Attachment may need to be modified. Tap M10X1.0 to mount if not using stock hanger.

This review is from: Shimano Alfine Chain Tensioners (Misc.)
This tensioner works very well, the only kind that allows retention of the front (crank) derailleur together with a single speed or multispeed hub. And at a great price.

Nice Tensioner - Extremely Poor Sales LIterature,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Shimano Alfine Chain Tensioners (Misc.)
WARNING - This tensioner is for use ONLY with Shimano Alfine hubs ONLY running narrow chainline
First of all, this is a very fine product. But the sales literature is non-existent. Do NOT buy this for your Alfine hub if you have flipped your cog to get a 47~ mm chainline. It will not work no matter how many spacers you put in. The 47~ mm chainline is the "normal" chainline for MTB (68/73 mm BB). Like I said, its a fine product and if you have not flipped the cog then it will work nicely for you. But if you have a MTB with the standard 50 mm chainline, do NOT buy this tensioner. 2115|R3VU6M6LKLQ5GI;2115|RQ9A2K8BX1AZV;2115|R7UDEZFL5M0QF;
