Sram Road Front Derailleur Chain Spotter with Washer (Used with Sram Front Derailleur)

Product Information

Token's own example has been around a good while. A little internet research reveals hundreds of satisfied users. If there was a criticism it was that the anodised alloy mounting bolt was too soft and inclined to round off when being tightened. I had no such trouble with mine, so it may be that the latest iteration includes an upgraded bolt.

If you're not sure about how to install it, follow this video. It's not on AXS groups but the installation process is the same. A bent chainring can throw chains. It’s easier to see a bend in a ring after lifting off the chain. Just turn the crank by hand slowly as you look down at the ring from above. If it’s wobbly enough to throw the chain every now and then, you’ll be able to see it. It takes a little care, but it’s not that hard to straighten bent rings. It can be done with an adjustable wrench with the jaws set to just slip over the ring. You can then hold the handle and gently pull/push on the ring at the wobble to get it straight again. If you start gently and work little by little never trying to bend it too far at one time, you should be able to straighten it enough that the chain stays on. In contrast, 52 to 36 is a drop, less brutal, but you do so many more RPM that it wears faster by sheer ratio of time spent in it.... It has been modified to work with all well known groupsets with the exclusion of the electronic Campagnolo EPS.

On these there is only a single (one) chainring. This makes for easy, uncomplicated shifting. Need a lower, easier gear to fight a headwind or top a climb?

No problem. Each shift onto each larger cassette cog on the rear wheel makes the pedaling a little easier. To get the easiest pedaling gear, the lowest one, shift all the way to the top/largest cog.Road chain catchers have been used in the Pro Tour for many years. Events such as Paris-Roubaix would be an obvious race to use a product that keeps your chain in place given the parcours that riders race. Our chain catcher has a conical tapered head, providing an excellent fit to braze on mounts that are integrated with frame. However with older frames you may use a clamp braze-on adapter. In such case please ensure that your adapter has a front face also conical (not flat). Once fitted it soon blends in and so far have had no need of it. On the plus side if anything were to go wrong with the workings of my chain I now have the perfect ride partner to prevent any serious damage. It's not often you want to wish for some mechanical but in trying to re-create that scenario it has worked.
