    Hi all,

    I am looking to purchase a set of new chain adjusters for my blade but i am wondering which of the two named above you recommend. I've read good comments for both so any help would be great

    Cheers

    Although I have gilles rearsets I much prefer the lightech chain adjusters I've just bought! Much easier to use from all acounts

    No,it's part of the adjustment system on these and can't be removed.
