Switch the tensioner from the load side of the chain to the slack side. Meaning move the tensioner from the seat stay to the chain stay.

 

[Tom from Rubicon]

G'day PR. Jerry is right about which side of the chain run to tension. But you might consider hanging the tensioner from the seat stay. Dynamically it is ideal. Chain stay mounting are wont to slip into the spokes. Thrilling on a good day.

Also want to change drive line to run on one side so can put on rear disk brakes

MBrebel offers a wheel set-up that carries a drive sprocket and brake disc.

I hear with these Choppers that because the chain is so long that it needs to be held up around the bottom of the rear sprocket with a chain tensioner (like in that pic I showed you)
or the chain likes to fall off alot.
We'll, you got the pic to help ya do it if need be.

Thx wrench going to put new sprocket on which will free up more chain (smaller cogg) then will see if better taking out links or tensioner like the on in pics

 

[Pedalrat]
