DMR do a fairly comprehensive conversion kit for the rear end, comprises of sprocket, spacers and lockring for the hub, and an adjustable tensioner arm with a PU roller.Ideally, you'd also have a SS specific chainring(deeper teeth so less likely to drop the chain),and possibly a dedicated SS chain(stronger), maybe even a Half-link type(easier to get near the correct length,some bikes take the tensioner to it's limit), but be aware that some chains are too wide to fit the groove in the tenioner's roller.
