Surly Tuggnut Tensioner (For Horizontal Dropouts)

Ever stomp on the pedals just to have your rear wheel slide forward in the dropouts and throw your chain? There are lots of BMX-style tensioners out there, but few of them fit in Surly's dropouts without some serious grinding. So, Surly designed a chain tensioner that will keep that rear wheel static in their dropouts...and most other kinds of rear-facing horizontal dropouts. Plus, the Tuggnut will open up a bottle o' brew. The body of the Tuggnut is investment cast in stainless steel for durability. It features a thumbscrew, for tool-free adjustments, and 2 axle holes for a wide range of fore/aft wheel positions. The Tuggnut comes with an aluminum adapter that reduces the axle hole from 10mm to 6mm, so you can use it with quick-release axles, in addition to nutted axles. It is sold as a single, because you really only need one...on the drive side. But, if you absolutely need one on the non-drive side of your rig, to achieve balance in your life, you are in luck...the bottle opener works either way.

Features

• Works with 10mm bolt-on or 6mm quick release axles

• Can be used on drive or non-drive side

• Opens beers with ease so that you and your bike can be the life of the party
