 | 8mm chaintug Just bought a pair of MKS chaintugs in the hope that one would fit on the Vivalo which has an 8mm gap in the dropout - they don't fit, the tugs are more 9/10mm Put one on the other bike fine but does anyone know if they make an 8mm chaintug? I did a search on here but couldn't find anthing. Thanks |

| | Can't file as the bit that doesn't slide in is part of the round/washer bit, ya get me!?  That bit that's on the washer with the 3 straight sides and curved edge onto the washer just won't slide in and can't be filed. Tits! I'll have to look for a specific 8mm thick as oppose to a 9/10mm. They must be around somewhere |

| | Yes, you could Dremel the tab that has the axel loop to fit, but my point is, there is also a 10mm bock inside the other part of the tug that is also a 10mm fitting, and this part cannot be modified with any ease - my pick did not illustrate this well, I will try take one with a better camera, rather than my phone. |

I'm surprised, as there's no need for them whatsoever. On the road, however, they seem to be useful as the road surface, resistance when climbing and comparatively long mileage contribute to the wheel sometimes pulling forwards. But then most people run their chain too tight on the road anyway. more to the point, why are you replying to a year-old thread? | |
