    which if any chain tugs fit a genesis IO rear droput? Ive had it with the monkey metal grub screws supplied with it!

    Thanks

    +1 with the same issue. How the hell do those grub screws bend??

    i think it gets dragged round the thread and bends, ive heard people using surly tugnuts and dmr’s chain tug. just wanted to see which ones work before i buy

    Think the idea is you use them to tension the wheel, tighten it up then back them off slightly

    (i.e. don’t ride with them under tension)

    If you want a cheap and easy solution I got a bag of about 15 bolts from B and Q that work fine for 3 quid. Tighten up with a flat head screwdriver too so easy to sort…

    I gave up with the crappy little set screws, the problems even worse with the Alfine hub.

    This is my solution, a quick release tug nut.


    Alfine one doubles as a no turn washer.


    New one just completed for a Day 01.

    Do you have access to a workshop and proper tooling, perchance?
    That one doesn’t look as if you used a hacksaw and molegrips to make it.
