I'm interested in what options I have for a 1x9 setup.

I currently run 1x9 on a hardtail using an 'n-gear jump stop' in place of the front mech. Never lost a chain.

I have now bought a dual suspension frame (100mm rear travel) and want to swap all the components over from the hardtail.

I am guessing that the jump-stop won't work well with a dual suspension bike.

I know I could use a rear clutch mech and narrow-wide chainwheel. But don't want to spend that much cash at the moment.

Any other options? Chain tension device? Stinger? Or just put the front mech back on?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Put a chain guide on it? I'm running a bb mounted gamut p20 the last 5 years or so. It's now on an orange five workingn a treat!
