Are you running a halflink in your chain? By doing so, youd be able to run the axle closer to "slammed" and it would move the cog away from the tensioner.


If you are running a halflink, you need to remove a link if you can, or go to a microdrive setup.

Did you get anywhere with this? I've got pretty much the same problem, except the bit that goes against the back of my dropouts is touching the freehub body Frown
