    Advice needed.
    I've recently changed the gearing on my SS scandal and fitted a new chain. The new gearing runs the rear axle closer to the end of the slot drop outs so the chain tug i was using (a DMR one) is useless this close, originaly the axle was closer to the BB and it all worked lovely.
    I did the QR extra tight and thought it'd be ok. After 4 days of use I noticed the wheel coming out of alignment so obviously I need a tug in place.
    Do the on-one ones pull that far back? or are there any others I should be considering? I dont want to have to knock something together to do the job but will if I have to.

    Cheers for any input.

    Loose a link out of the chain?

    Too tight, although if the chain stretches a touch I could.

    Even if you use a half link?

    I also run DMRs and have to half link the chain.

    Surly tugnut has two holes in it to allow you to pull the whole length of the trackend.

    Sorted, thanks guys, the surley tugnut looks good. I may have to put it on my christmas list and in the mean time gram a half link.

    cheers,
