Rohloff DH Shorty Chain Tensioner
Item number: 11157
Keeps your chain securely under tension: the DH Shorty Chain Tensioner by Rohloff
The Rohloff DH chain tensioner is designed for downhill use. It has a tensioning capacity of 10 links and, in contrast to the normal Rohloff chain tensioner, has a shortened swivel arm that is screwed to the derailleur hanger so that it cannot twist. As a result, the upper tensioning roller runs very close to the sprocket. This positive guidance guarantees a safe run-in of the chain onto the sprocket even in extreme riding situations.
To remove the rear wheel, the fastening screw on the derailleur hanger must be loosened.
- Note:
- If the dropout thickness is less than 7 mm and the screw sprocket with 13 teeth is used, as well as all plug-in sprockets (chainline 57 mm), a longer fastening bolt is necessary (included). You can find chainline specifications at Rohloff
