I have a mob with vertical dropouts. Right now it is setup singlespeed with a gusset tensioner and a gusset spacer kit and cog. I have a 18t on right now and 34t in front. I also have a 16t not on the bike.
Would it be bad to put both cogs on the rear with 1 small spacer in between them and then just adjust the tensioner over to which ever gear I would want to be in? (on my tensioner you can move over the axle that has the pully on it)

This would be in order to change it for wherever I am riding on that day or time.
Opinions needed

worth a shot if you can move the tensioner like that. Might not have optimal chainline on one of the combos, but if the tensioner is working well then the chain should stay on I would think.

Try it, take pics, and report back. That is your assignment! :biggrin:

I fully support as many chains and cogs you can get onto your bike.

WHAT IS THAT? Two driveside arms? What kind of hub can have cogs on both sides? Custom? Explain!
