    Good quality, keeps the chain taught on bumps, and goes well with the rest of the components.

    Going to a new drive train type is a bit unsettling. In choosing an internal gear rear cub, I considered just using the existing Ultegra derailleur and locking the shifter into the correct location. I knew there was probably a better way to allow the wheel to be removed for maintenance and such. This small and light-weight chain tensioner does the trick really well. I've only ridden it a couple of hundred miles so far, on a variety of pavement and packed dirt. It's doing its job just fine.

    Don't Buy It!

    Put this on a Catrike Trail since I installed a Nuvinci N360 and kept the front derailleur and chainrings.. Spring promptly broke within minutes leaving the tensioner dangling and not enough tension in the chain to allow shifting from the 30t to the bigger ones. All work was done by an experienced mechanic at the LBS. Will just use the old rear derailleur as a tensioner. Stay away from it.

  • Strong tensioner

    I have purchased 4 tensioners in the mission to make a single speed, 20" wheeled downhill ebike. The chain tensioner has been the hardest part. Long travel rear suspension would kick chains all the time. This Alfine tensioner has a very rigid spring, and keeps my chain on finally. Its not perfect, though. it has very little chain line adjustment, it is likely you will run into a problem with that, if you run your rear cog anywhere from the middle to the outside of the cartridge. This is for middle to inside of the cartridge. The cogs are plastic, not alloy. Otherwise its great!

  • Make sure it's compatible

    Since there is no lateral adjustment on this it will only work for specific Shimano single speed hubs and is, unfortunately, not appropriate for most single speed conversions. It's a shame as it's a nice quality component. I don't know why manufacturers haven't noticed that there's a void/need for this that's currently only filled by a few very high end pieces of kit.

  • just OK

    This isn't really ideal if you're trying to do a weird single speed setup, which if you're buying a 2 pulley chain tensioner, you probably are. The chainline adjustment is very bad, it's done only with washers, so you get very little adjustment. Its also HEAVY. No tension adjustment either. The one thing I can say about it is that it's structurally pretty solid.
