  • Really simple and accurate

    This is really that simple and accurate to use, it does take out the guess work of chain slack. I know i have been stood round a number of bikes over many years, and each owner thinks their right, when its just putting your finger to the chain, and pushing it up and down. So if you doubt your own accurate "up and down" seems OK, then this will be your friend. It is accurate, and easy to use, the guide is in the back of the blister pack, however i think the price seems a little high, but it might be around for a long time, so will maybe forget the price after a few years of use.

  • Chain monkey, make the job simple

    On 2 of my off road bikes the chain hits the swing arm and lower chain roller during chain adjustment making it impossible to get it to the correct tension. The chain monkey removes this problem. The only bad point is if you throw the tool in your tool box and dispose of the packaging you also end up disposing of the chain monkey tension setting chart. This chart should be on the tool not on the packaging.

  • It's ok.

    I bought this as I have 4 vintage (1980's) bikes from 250-750. Can't say that the instructions are that clear and could be on the tool itself. It is simple to use but the instructions allow such enormous variation so getting it right first time is unlikely and like me you will have to adjust in spanner increments . The black plastic sheared off the chain holder first time on my 750 bit reveals metal so I am ok with that. BUT I can see that by using this tool it gets it more exact simply by holding chain in right position so that after initial use you can make spanner 1/4 turn adjustments to perfection. Would I buy it again- yes There is no doubt that all my bikes chains are spot on better than ever. Not a great deal but there is more work to be done than in videos but not much.

  • Chain monkey 🐒

    A fast and easy way to set the chain slack. It takes the guess work out of the job .Essential for the home mechanic. A little expensive for made out of plastic.

  • Good piece of kit

    Looks complicated at first but the setting up only needs to be done once, It can then sit in your tool box until needed and takes seconds. Not cheap but i have spent the last 20 years getting my chain wrong so probably worth it.

  • Excellent bit of kit.

    Wow, so easy to use. It was more difficult to.fimd the info in the Haynes manual than use this tool. It's made gettingbthe correct tension on the chain so easy. I definitely recommend getting one of these. Fast posting and as described. Thanks.

  • No more monkeying about

    Makes setting your chain tension so much more easier than scrabbling around with a rule trying to read off the measurement or guesstimating how much slack there is in your chain. So easy to use that even the most inexperienced person can't go wrong with it
