Vampire Bikes Launches the Ripperatti: A Convertible Titanium DH Bike With a Gearbox

From experience, the tensioner will eventually get destroyed. The original design had 4 holes for the spring spaced 90deg around the bolt but when one breaks I lost use of the broken hole and a second hole, twice. The updated tensioner I have only has one hole I think. If you ride areas with loose rocks it will break.
