      could be better.

      I don't like this product very much, firstly there is zero instruction for how to mount the chain tensioner. the jockey wheel feels very cheap and is noisy. it also doesn't work overly well as after a few jumps or so the chain becomes loose again. would highly recommend paying a bit more money for a chain tensioner with a spring and an actual jockey wheel.

      Not bad

      No instructions or even a half decent photo on how it gets installed. I haven't done much maintainence or bike modifications before, so this was a bit problematic. Despite that, I figured out a way that I could use on my Norco two50. Unfortunately, I have one link that is bigger/wider than the rest, not sure what you call it, seems like a special link that you'd use to get the chain off without the special tool. That little guy doesn't fit through the plastic pulley, so you'd get a bit of chain braking every couple of seconds. Despite this, it's a quality looking bit of gear, plastic pulley is a bit noisy however. All the same, with a bit of thinking, can easily get it fitted and fixed to work on a single speed with horizontal dropouts.
