Are you running bolt up, chain tugs or both? cheers
Track ends? Bolt up is best really
Its a Cotic Simple.
Been running just QR's (Salsa) on my Simple for a couple of years now. Swapped the allen head bolts out for Hex and no problems so far. Live in South Wales so there's a fair bit of hammer going through the chain.
I ran a QR Rohloff in a horizontal dropout Chameleon, despite Rohloff recommending using the nutted version.
Some QRs were 100% reliable, some slipped at the first hill. I later progressed to an EBB, then a sliding dropout frame and can't now remember which were the good QRs.
If by Bolt Up, you mean the skewers with a socket cap head that are actually a very long thin bolt, I found them 100% reliable.
Never tried chain tugs.
neither and fwiw you can run fixed with quick release as well
I use a shimano quick release with a chaintug on each side, just to make sure. Haven't had any slippage so far.
Think I'll start with chaintugs and quick release.
I thought Simples had a little screw adjuster to hold the axle at its set point?
Chaintugs and QR on the Inbred, no problems to report...
Using Bolts here just for the security and I've had QR move around-just me? others I know have used QR no problem too.
Had a qr on it's own, then went for allen bolts, now use allen bolts and chain tugs
tugs + bolt up always worked nicely on my bmx! My last bmx didn't actually have tugs but I find it a lot easier to align the wheel and keep it aligned if there are tugs. I suspect they'll be handy for keeping it in place with a disc brake as well.
Quick release and Surley tug on the drive side for me. And bottle opener for apres ride beer..
chaintug here, anything else slips because my legs are so strong...
binned the little screws as they are too little.
Chaintug on the drive side with a shimano QR.
i sometimes get movement on the disk side.
Wouldn't want to run fixed with just a QR in track ends mind. Anything with the potential to unship the chain could be lethal.
The screws are fine if you swap them out for hex heads.
qr and chain tugs each side - no problems
quick release with tug
track nuts with tug
allen bolts without tug.
all work well.
