Hi,
I run a single 38t middleburn chainring on my 2000 Rockhopper with a DMR chaincage to keep the chain on.
I no longer have faith in the chaincage so went to the bikeshop to see about buying something more serious to keep the chain on but apparently the bottom bracket on a 2000 rockhopper isn't designed to take a tensioner/system that attaches to it (cup thread not long enough???).
I was wondering if there was anything i could do to work around this, or if the guy in the shop could be wrong? If anyones had a similar problem or could offer some advice i'd be really grateful!
Would two bashrings either side of the chainring stop it coming off?
Sorry about the long post!
Cheers
