Trials Dave Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 snail cams are like the chain tensioners that motorcycles use. they are like a spacer which get wider on one side. u turn it to make your chain tensioner. personally i prfer the cams as i am used to using them on my motorbike and they are easy to use and keep your wheel in line well. there you go>>> http://tartybikes.co.uk/image.php?image=tryallsnailcam.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the freshproducts snail cams and they are well reccomended. You can buy then here www.freshproducts.co.uk, The try-all ones also look good available from tartybikes. cheers...Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trials Dave Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 as you can see in the picture the snail cams have a sort of point on them. when you put them on make sure this point is upwards other wise you could snap them when you land on them off a sidehop etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todge Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Can supply with two stainless steel bolts as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
san Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Go for the onza chain tughs because when your chain gets to long you wont be able to tighten it anymore with te snail cam so deffinitly go for chain tughs you can also tighten your chain more precise with the tughs hope i helped -san Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaRtZ Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 If your frame can take it, snail cams no questions But My zona zip doesn't have anywhere for the bolts to go, in for the cams to hit against <_< so I've had to buy the onza chain tugs which do the job well (N) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
