got a couple bikes here for repair that have some custom parts on them
one has a hub adapter that uses metric 6mm allen for hub bolts, then uses SAE 7/32 allen for sprocket bolts - customer had chewed them up badly by using wrong wrenches - totally the fault of whoever makes a mix/match POS like that
other has what looks like a nice arc-type chain tensioner, but it fits inside the stays with three clamps and is made of thin aluminum - no way to adjust in/out to meet where the chain runs and it wobbles and bends in the middle constantly throwing the chain - had to make solid mounts to hold it in line, but still don't trust it
be really careful what you buy out there
