Can anyone recommend a chain device for dual ring no ISGC mounts that will not brake the bank.

It's for a 2009 trek remedy

Cheers

I've used the £100+ E13 version, and this works just as well. Been using one on my hardtail for a couple of years trouble free

Im running a DMR Chain Reactor mounted on an ISCG 05 mount adaptor on my Stinky and it works fine. In the confusing and expensive world of chain devices it's pretty simple and reasonably cheap, I think it was a tenner or so for the adaptor and about £35 for the chain device.

DMR make loads though, they're worth checking out.

Hey,

I run an E13 DRS, with the BB mounting plate.

Run it on a 456 and 5-Spot without any probs.

They tend to go for about £50 on the classifieds/Ebay.

Highly recommended, and with lots of clear fitting info etc on the E13 website.

Can't big them up enough

Hope that helps!

Another vote for the E13 here,fitted one to 09 Remedy and it works great.

I've got an E13 DRS (came with the bike) and it works just fine but for £22 how can you go wrong with guitarhero's suggestion? Couple of my mates have these (Blackspire Stingers that is) and have no probs.

I've just taken the Stinger off my Remedy.

One issue with a chain guide on the Remedy is that the drive side chainstay is so low that the Stinger will end up lower than the bashguard: makes it liable to hitting on rocks/ logs, and twisting round against the chainstay on impact and jamming the chain against the chainstay.

I've fitted an SLX dual specific front mech mounted really low and haven't dropped a chain since with some fairly rocky descending. I've found for some reason the Remedy holds the chain far better than my old Patriot which lost the chain a fair bit even with the Stinger fitted.

and BTW I rate Stingers as far better than DRSs: I had a DRS and the roller wore and stretched then the bearings seized very quickly. Never had a wear/maintenance issue with Stingers despite a couple of years of use.
