Chain wont set right

[Anamaul]

Do i need to just switch the tensor around? I don’t know doesn’t sound like a good idea so im asking the experts here. Never had this issue before. This is my third bike.

Yeah, put the tensioner wheel on the other side of the bracket and have the nut side out

Thanks for responding so quickly

If you need the offset in the bracket you can turn the bracket around, some bike frames require that. You may also have to twist the tensioner to get the chain aligned, I do it with a big adjustable wrench. I like the bolt heads on the outside of the mount, that keep someone from hitting the threads with their ankle went raising the kick stand.

Do you ever use a straight edge to check your chain line?
Rack of eye, doesn't work well. This being your third build, I am sure you know that.

This build has been fixed. I’m now working on a minerelli build.
