cleanorbust Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 I picked up a suitable spring for my 247 tensioner at an old-school ironmongers. A few bike shops of this type also still exist - you know, the type where they don't deal in part numbers but have an old glass jar behind the counter with a yellowing hand written label marked "springs'.

lineaway Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 One of those old style shops that have parts, not drop ship them from a parts source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
