Saw an ad up there for "The Widget" http://www.widgit.com.au/index.html

Does anyone use these for running 1x9? Seem like they could be a good idea but good ideas sometimes dont work out in reality in MTB land....

If your chain stays in with a 1x9 setup without a chain device of some form stopping the chain from coming off you're either riding around fields or seriously slow*. What a useless overpriced idea.

*No doubt I'll get a stream of replies of people who don't have this issue. Sorry but you're slow, try harder :o)

Well, an MRP 1.X weighs ~60g and costs ~£37. It will have to cost less than that to be a worthwhile alternative!
