Take the rear wheel out without the chain sagging into your frame or dropping muck across your bike. The PRO Chain Tension Device slots into a 12mm E-Thru rear dropout and holds the chain taut, keeping it clean and clear while the wheel is off, so transport and packing are tidy and fuss-free.
Highlights
- Keeps the chain tensioned and out of the way when the rear wheel is removed
- Stops the chain sagging, soiling your frame or marking the dropout
- Lightweight aluminium build that lives easily in a kit bag or travel case
- Fits 12mm E-Thru rear dropouts on road and mountain bikes
Cleaner transport and storage
With the rear wheel out, a loose chain swings against the chainstay and frame, picking up grime and leaving marks. This device takes the chain's place at the dropout and holds it under tension, so it stays put and stays clean while the bike is in a bag, on a rack or boxed for travel.
Simple to fit
Slot the device into the rear dropout where the wheel sat and secure it like the axle. It is a handy on-the-go tensioner that packs small and weighs little.
Compatibility & fit
Designed for bikes with a 12mm E-Thru (thru-axle) rear end, covering road and mountain bike use. If your bike runs a quick-release rear skewer instead, choose the quick-release version of the PRO Chain Tension Device (PRAC0096).
