|
I did a search and couldn't find much info on this. I just ordered a hardtail section from G&L last week and was wondering if I should invest in a roller as well. I noticed most bikes with a stretch have them. Is there a certain location I should put it? Looks like most of them are about half way down the chain. How high above the chain should it set? thanks for the info.

A roller should press up on the bottom of the chain. most any where will work. The main reason is to prevent chain slap. I would use a spring loaded roller.
