Bionic Balls Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 they can break in all kinds of ways...take it off and bend it back, or buy new ones some are beefier than others...which should be obvious if you look..yes, people have trouble with chain tugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidehop Stuart Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 try and put some in-built chain tugs into your frame. drill a hole like on the prototype one. they wont break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cai Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Onza chain tugs are shit! Get the gusset ones, they are a little heavyer, but will never break! As they're welded as apposed to the Onza chain tugs (which are threaded, then screw in).Basicly buy the gusset ones, and be worry free!

Tamness™ Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 2 of my friends and I all ride onzas and they both snapped their chain tugs within a few weeks. They replaced them with snail cams and have never had a problem. On the other hand I haven't snapped my onza chain tugs but I ride like a girl.

Captain Scarlet Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 Gusset chain tugs are also better as they have a thicker thread, and the part that grips the end of the drop out is even on both sides, not more material on one side so it does not lever the tug outwards. I've gone through many pairs of Onza chain tugs, and had my Gusset tugs with no problems whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 where can you get them from?! They used to be (only?) available from trialsin.com but I can't see them on the site any more. To be fair I have trouble finding anything on the trialsin site since it's changed hands!! Sort them out Tim! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
