i used this product beyond the time i expected it to last. it is a great way to avoid shelling out the dough for a new hub and freewheel. the chainline may not be perfect in all instances but it was for me and with the varying spacer widths it should be close.
Product Used For: 2 or More Years
Product Strengths:excellent for the price. it's a cheap and efficient way to go s.s.
Product Weaknesses:stamped cog digs into the hub's spline a bit but that is after years of hard riding.

Ingenuity required to acquire the proper chainline. The cogs are stamped steel and in time digs into your freehub. I replaced the freehub (XT disk) with solid splines for a fix. I used the Gusset on another wheel and had to use an additional spacer (not provided) so that I could lock the cluster. Not user friendly, but is far more attractive to any other alternative spacers.
Product Used For: 2 or More Years
Product Strengths:Simple, clean, and attractive.
Product Weaknesses:Weight, cog design, lack of adjustment.
My Bike:Bontrager Racelite

It´s a simple piece that everybody must have, easy to install, works really great and totally strong, it didn´t skip. I suggest to use a chain tensor for additional protection and a better average.

Hans a XC Rider from Arlington, Va United States writes:
Like another reviewer, I cannot get a straight chain line with this thing! I have a single-speed crankset in front (Truvativ Style SS) and have tried with double bashguard setup + spacers and with the default outside-bashguard setup. In both scenarios, the chain line is off, causing skipping -- or worse, dropping my chain (with single bashguard). I cannot improve the situation in the rear (swapping the spacers would make the problem worse). ... So I'm now going to cough up the extra $$ for the far more adjustable Surly setup.
Product Used For: 1 Month
Product Strengths:Simple-looking.
Product Weaknesses:Cannot adjust chain line!
My Bike:GT Avalanche frame, 32T Truvativ Stylo SS
