Cam Chain Tensioners required

Post by chi kung »

Does anyone know the best place to get std tensioners from for the best price. I want to get mine done so i dont have to worry about them for a while.


Thanks in advance.

The main thing is that your modifying them so they don't fail, are you using the biro spring stopper design, I ask cause I did this on am old cct And the biro spring had very little guts in it. Took it out after a bit and the spring stayed the same compressed length. Not as good as they used to be. My advise source a good strong spring, if you are going down that road
