Questions & Answers

34. Is this correct. What is the meaning of 9 seat tubes?

This is the size 34 of my Dura Ace front derailleur clamp. There are 9 mm in it. My "35 mm" fang fits perfectly on the down tube of my Kline bike. My finger could have been wiped by the self adhesive tape included in the package. I am not really sure.

How does the 35mm film In 8) please Taking the distance between the downtube edge and the chain edge. This is the diameter of the tube, or is that the inside ?

If you prefer, you can use 35mm or 31mm. There are 8 mm in diameter on the seatpost. To determine the seatpost width, measure the side opposite the Currently, I have this on two bikes and it does a great job.

When should the mounting position be taken into account?

A small chain ring mounts on the seat tube at the same level as the seat post. It is adjusted so it will not interfere with the chainring by being as close to the chainring as possible. In order to direct the fang towards the back of the bike, the bicycle should be upright.

A description claims that it is aluminum, but the pictures make it look like plastic. Where can I find the materials for this?

It is made out of The aluminum will probably scratch at an easy rate with a chain dropped on it, so it's probably better this way

I could not get it to work with the This did not work for bike frames and should be noted in the description as this did not work for bike frames
3/5

The product is not intended for use with carbon frames with a flared seat tube at the bottom bracket as my frames do. A set of these is only made for frames that are of the same size from top to bottom. The material itself is rather good. This plastic frame fits any frame and is light weight and easy to install. Value for money is ideal if it fits your frame as it should.

I am not giving you any instructions! There are no instructions on the package, and the manufacturer's website does not have anything about how to mount it opinions vary as to whether it should be mounted forward or backward, and even whether it should go above or even below Since I am not feeling like experimenting with this thing while I am on the road, I might return

This is a must have
5/5

I used to drop my chain every ride. Since I installed it, I've only dropped it once in maybe 10, so that's a big improvement. If I adjusted it a little bit better, I might be able Even though you might not think it makes a difference, going from shifting down to the small ring gingerly and slowly expecting failure, to being able to just throw it down there without worrying, while keeping your mind on the road, can make a huge.

Defend yourself with a dog's tail
5/5

To raise funds for my new gym, I had my local bike shop build me a new Lynskey Helix bike It all worked perfectly except that the chain kept jumping off the small chainring when I changed from the large to the small The most annoying thing ever. I ordered a Deda Dog Fang. It is quite inexpensive and I had read good things about it so after reading my reviews I installed one Up until a few months ago, downshifts to the small chainring were impossible. There has never been a time when it has fallen off onto the My only complaint is that you have to go to the Deda website to find installation instructions since they are not included with the product, but this is a small issue. Now that I've installed it on my other bike and it works perfectly, too, I've ordered another one. I am satisfied with the product since it does what is expected of it. My recommendation is to check it out.

The best five stars I've ever given
5/5

With a Dura-Ace Dura-XR3 I have a Specialized Roubaix Pro bike The components are from Ace/Integra and the crank is from FSA. During the entire hill climb chain kept falling off to the inside. Not just under pressure (such as in the middle of a hill climb), but also during the flat road before a hill climb. A bicycle shop tried to fix it many times until they finally realized I should just replace the crank with a Shimano component to match the rest of my bike. Have you ever purchased a Dura-clone Do you have an ace There is a lot of money here. It's the first thing I bought that I saw on pro bikes on the TDF and I've never been happier. I feel as if I have a different bike. I can change from my big to small chain rings (I ride a compact) anywhere I want - it's like having another bike. My personal best for getting up a steep hill includes mashing as hard as I can A perfect drop onto that small ring is guaranteed every time. After buying my bike approximately one year ago, I have not had a dropped chain. I have put about 1000 miles on it It works for me, as with almost everything in life, but your mileage may vary.

Listed below are some pros and cons
4/5

This is a good thing There is no need to make it complicated it appears to work, and it is a simple solution to a painful problem. The There is nothing special about it (it's just more useful and easier to use if it had hex eyes instead of a traditional screwdriver head. (I also think this.

The dog fangs I use are better chain stoppers than chain catchers because they have teeth
4/5

An essential part of a bicycle is either a dog fang or a chain catcher. In my opinion, chain fangs are better chain stoppers than chain catchers since their designs are more reliable and they are mounted on the chain with a more secure attachment.

5/5

It is an excellent fix for chains that slip. There is room for improvement in the instructions.
