FFS Dan, I want something fancy and you give me reality :LolLolLolLol:

Static was/is Mason Smiths (custom riders) little engineering shop. Run by a mate of his I think, they used to produce all sorts of little nuggets. The chain tensioner was a good sized ally machined washer with a block to slide into the dropout, a peice of M6 stud, a nice ally retainer and a 10mm nyloc nut to finish it off.
I think from memory, he also produced one with a 14mm block, but a 10mm hole, thus becoming both tensioner and axle converter all in one :)
I might even have my old ones lying around somewhere. want me to have a look tomorrow?

If you want, I could have a look around at work and see if I can get you some longer bolts to use.
It looks like its only the lower left one that is anywhere near long enough! :LolLolLolLol:

Oh, Maybe they are like those bars that drag cars have out the back to stop them flipping over. Dingo has such a snap out of the gate he needs wheelie bars!

better :LolLolLolLol:
:) DINGO :)

is this really why you have one extremely long bolt??? to act as a wheelie bar?????
methinks you may be teasing........i'd love to know the real reason (unless it is as simple as i think, and you've lost a grub screw)
