ahh sweet! yeah i think i might do the same then, and ring them up, send them back, because i only got them last week..so should be fine yeah man cool if the try all ones work let me kno and i mite invest in some of them instead!

ahhh damn! looks like they wont fit mate well mine didnt anyway, bought them from tarty bikes last week... the holes next to the dropouts on the tpro are quite far away from the axle too, and the monty cams seem quite small, so looks like they wouldnt do too much tensioning anyway on a tpro if you get them to work though, let me know mate! or if u find some bolts that fit in the frame!!

yeah the old pole trick is always good, but when u dont have a pole about that fits over the crank arm...or you dont have a freewheel tool....like i didnt... then the angle grinder way is probably the most fun/dangerous... haha i might post up a pic of my angle grinded freewheel of where this this whole thing came from but yeah...halfords couldnt even remove my god damn freewheel so if they cant, then only an angle grinder and a crow bar can!! or maybe not.... haha yeah mate, i wudnt recommend angle grindage on an eno

haha ok thanks for the info mate...you might get a few gays replying back to you now youve said that! haha and yeah in reply to the other post, i did try a freewheel tool...i tried literally everything, it was just jammed on so hard, so what i said was the only thing that could do the job!

yeah cool, thats what i thought, but the bolts that came with the monty snail cams dont fit in those holes next to the dropout (theyre too big...). and have no idea where i can get some that might fit the t-pro frame! any idea if theyre the same sized holes as any other frames? as onza dont make snail cams as far as i know...damn them!

This IS the way to remove your busted up freewheel from your pedal arm You Need: - A crowbar - A gas camping stove - A pickaxe - An angle grinder - A saucepan - Some cold water - A vice - A hench guy with some big muscles - A screwdriver - Pliers - A hammer - Your crank arm with freewheel attatched - A nice new freewheel to go back on! How To! so yeah, i discovered this method the other day when the acs freewheel on my t-pro broke and was completley stuck on so tight, so first things first, take the crank arm off your bike with the freewheel on...and also take off the pedal. using a screwdriver and hammer (maybe needed), take off the cover on the back of the freewheel ....completley unscrew it. now the cog thing should just lift off, but u need something to catch all those ball bearings!! so act quick! take everything off the freewheel that you can, so you're just left with 2 parts on your crank arm: the crank arm itself, and the centre core bit of the freewheel. ok fun stuff now...you can see on the freewheel part that there is some flat recessed bits on it (4 of them around the freewheel), above the threads. so to get a better grip in the vice, you take an angle grinder and clamp the freewheel in a vice. you grind away 2 opposite flat recessed bits, until you end up with 2 good flat edges on either side of the freewheel... where some goggles kids, safety first and all that go check the freewheel now fits nicely in the vice...if it doesnt, do some more grindage till it does now...get the saucepan, fill it with some cold water. get your gas camping stove, light it and set it to MAX!!!! Grab hold of the pliers and hold the end of the crank arm (pedal end), then hold the freewheel over the stove for a few mins. (the pliers are so you dont burn the crap out of your hands....) then whack it straight in to the cold water...do this like a few times, then the last time heat the hell out of it...yeah watch out it'll be bloody hot, and so easy does it, go clamp it in the vice so that the flat grinded bits are touching the plates on the vice. now get either the pickaxe or the crowbar, whicherver tool you prefer and go whack the vice arm to tighten it up reallll good. now take the crowbar (this seemed the best tool after trying a few times)...and smack the pedal arm reallly really hard (anti-clockwise)...if the thing just slips out of the vice, just whack it back in again....and just keep hitting it with the crowbar. then eventually it will undo and the freewheel will come undone and its the biggest feeling of acheivement all year. then grease up the threads, and screw on the nice new freewheel. job done well thats the tried and tested method of removing a freewheel kids. have fun

Yep i'm pretty sure i had them set up correctly; they fitted in the slots of the dropouts fine, but the thing is with the onza chain tugs is that they're not all that strong, so they've just ended up completley bending from the stress on them....on 1 of them, the things that fit into the slots on the frame have started snapping off! i'll take a pic and post it up here anyway...but at the moment the tensioners are pretty much mullered haha but yeah cool, maybe a decent set of chain tugs are the way forwards cheers man

I've got a '06 onza t-pro...but the onza chain tugs pretty much suck...! keep snapping/bending etc etc... so the other day i bought myself some monty snail cam tensioners, but the little screws that are meant to screw into the frame dont fit...plus the actual snail cams look too small to have any effect on tensioning the chain.. any idea what tensioners might work the best?? or if i can get any snail cams to work, as i've heard they're not bad on a mod with horizontal dropouts
