Motion Pro Chain Alignment Tool 08-0048

It took me a few tries to use this tool successfully. With a new chain, and the adjusters fully loose, I coudn't seem to get it straight without making the chain too tight. I eventually realized that tension was needed to keep the axle tight against the adjusters. So, either tighten the chain temporarily, or wedge something in the rear sprocket to keep the axle tight against the adjusters. Once you've set the alignment, you can count turns to adjust your chain tension. Perhaps some better instructions would be useful with this tool.

The tool requires some good lighting to see down the chain for the best alignment, and can be tricky to use the first time. Line it up as far down the chain as possible, without touching the chain. However, are there any replacement rods? It's tough, but can still bend.

Does exactly as desscribed, easy set up, and guage.

Motion Pro makes very good stuff, Bought this as a Novelty Item, as I bought Lightech Chain Adjusters as well, and would be a pretty big Goof if I actually need this with those, still this looked cool and it is, bet it works well.

The Motion Pro Chain Alignment Tool is a must have if you intend to do any work on your bike. It's so easy to use and will ensure several critical parts will last (sprockets, chain, tire, etc.). At this price, you can't go wrong.

Quick easy way to align your chain

The more simple a device is, the better it's use. This alignment tool is so easy to use I don't know why I didn't get one before now. More accurate than "eyeballing" it or using a straight edge.

Great, easy to use.

Super easy to use, pretty functional and easy on the Wallet
