Got my emmross lo pro set up now but can't get the chain tight enough. It's running fixed gear, on 48-18 any ideas?

Try bigger cog or chainring.

Is it a frame meant for gears?

Eccentric BB, white industries ENO rear hub or 'magic gear' the f@ck out of it...

search magic gear to see how to calculate the optimum chain and cog and chainring sizes for your specific set up ... or get an eccentric bottom bracket which allows you to take up the slack

how much slack can you take up with an eccentric bb?

Half link chain may help? Or play around with the sizes of sprocket and chain ring.

I've got a half link on ATM. It runs ok but it is still too slack really. I'll try sizing up the chain ring if not weld on some track dropouts ;)

Half link chains are ugly as sin, as is puppy killing the frame for new dropouts. Just magic gear it, you'll get it perfect without any unnecessary hassle.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
