Why are chain tensioners important? Glad you asked. They keep your back wheel lined up and keep you rolling smoothly down the road. I'll show you how I like to install and adjust them and make sure everything is good to go.

Always depends on if there’s enough axle left after adding both tensioners and pegs. Put them on and tighten the axle bolts - if there’s still axle sticking out of the nut, you’re good. Remember, if your bike didn’t come with them, it could void the warranty. I don’t blame SE or the bike company if I bend something though. I modified the bike and I own the outcome🤘

It always comes down to how long your axels are. The tensioners take up threads... then pegs take threads... so you want to make sure with both installed, you have enough thread that the axel nut completely covers the axels. I know SE doesn’t suggest it and it might void warranty. Unless you bike came with both, I wouldn’t do it. If you have to choose, go with pegs if you’re doing wheelies and footwork.

Nope. Fast rippers use a derailleur to keep your chain tight flipping through gears. It has a vertical dropout that fixes the axle in place. Chain tensioners work on horizontal dropouts and pull your wheel back to create chain tension.

If there's enough axle length - technically, yes. It'll void your warranty though. Adding pegs means you're standing/jumping on them like you should be. You're adding extra weight futher down the axle so it'll bend faster than if you didn't have chain tensioners. Hope that helps explain why it could work, but why you shouldn't do it.

By high point and low point, you are referring to the chain's tension, correct? Which is high and which is low (taught/loose?) can you elaborate please? I've always noticed it changes when you rotate the sprockets. I used to think it was a stretched chain on my Harleys and dirt bikes, but now I've noticed brand new chains are like that. Just installed two on two brand new project bicycles and they both do that, so I adjusted to a happy medium about 1/2" play +/- On a side note, I used to have a pair of Oakleys like that in the early 90s for snow skiing. They were white frames and purple iridium lenses. Dope! OH YEAH, BROTHER! I just subscribed.

MrAsphaltSquadron you’re 100% right. High is taught and low is loose. Every bike has it. Sounds like you have it adjusted at the right spot too.

C._swerve 23 it depends on how long the axel on your wheel is. Good example: my big ripper no. My PK ripper can🤘

okAnthony I honestly don’t know. I haven’t seen how long the axels are on the Flyer. I’d ask your local shop before you buy🤘

That depends on your individual bike and how much axle you have left after adding chain tensioners.

@@marcellocano1311 I would say test it. Put the chain tensioners on and see how much is left over. If you have enough thread to put the pegs on and STILL have some thread popping out the axle nut, you should be ok. Now, that being said... It's not designed to have both so ride at your own risk - but that's what I do with pegs and chain tensioners.
