  • Inbred swappy dropout chain tugs – replacement?

    On my old 2006 Inbred (the white one sold complete with swappable geared/singlespeed dropouts) the black tugnut tensioners look ominously bent. Is there anything available to replace them?

    You could reinforce them with a bit of something, or you could probably bodge something out of one of the on-one 5mm qr version chaintug.

    Mine were looking less than straight when I got the bike (second hand) so I bent them straight and they’ve survived so far…

    I assume from Brant’s reply there are no spares? An extra strip of stiff metal on the outside may reinforce it, bodging something from the chain tugs is a bit more complex.

    Anyone else got any ideas, or already ‘fixed’ theirs?

    Thanks for replies. What might you suggest for reinforcement material Brant? I’m thinking Coke can won’t suffice.
