I'm about to build a singlespeed Solaris
Any tips on chain tensioners or options without.
Someone will mention magic gear. This will only work till the chain wears. I use a Blackspire Stinger to tension my ss. Certain ratios will need a half link though.
Stinger as a tensioner.

Edit. Saves the faffage of a rear tensioner.

Hadn't thought of that option. Run a stinger on Full Sus
That stinger looks tidy.
I've used a Singleator
Not much beats an EBB for ultimate neatness and zero drag (except magic ratio which lasts half a dozen rides using a normal chain)
I've found the 4jeri from http://www.charliethebikemonger.com/4jeri-tensioner-29-p.asp to be the best I've used so far. I like the Stinger idea though!
