when i ordered off crc i ordered a 12t conversion kit and a 25t sprocket, the one in the picture, then found that the rear cog diddent work with a bmx chain. so had to put a 14 form my old cassete. luckily i have a green 30t from my bmx so i put that on there. so lost no money. just luck i had that one from my bmx. and i dont ride it anymore so its all good

ey guys...i wanna make my bike ss, but its vertical dropout :thumbdown: ...do you have to use a tensioner or can you use a half link chain and get the tension just rite? or is that risky? :unsure:

 

 

I'm not too clued up on SS, but with vertical dropouts I thin it's best that you run a tensioner. I know the DMR SS conversion kits aren't too pricey (under R400)

Hey, you don't need a tensioner.

I managed to get mine right by trying a bunch of differnt combinations of rings, with either a 24 or 32 on front and from 12 - 18 on back.

I think I landed up using 32-14, which was the correct length for the chain. I broke the teeth off 2 16T rings and put them either side of the 15

Just to make sure the chain doesn't jump off.

The half link chain would be better as you can get closer to the gear ratio you want.

 

Hope this helps
