Thinking of a dual duty SS. (For road/ work/ dogs) Was originally going to put loads of gears on but hmmm..

11T single at the back and 36/22 at the front.

Maybe an old-style alfie tensioner (the one that looks like a mech? )

Thoughts?

Edit. Bought one already. 16T max front difference. Not sure how it will work with the 11t. wait and see 🙂

Better bet IMO is 2x2 designed so that the same length chain works on both ratios. No need for a tensioner then (assuming it's a SS-specific frame)

Not SS specific. Got the tensioner. Will have a play and update. I need a tensioner anyway for another project so no big loss if it doesnt work!
