As mihlbach pointed out, tension is not the right word.
I don't understand why people think FG is so much harder on a drivetrain than SS. It's exactly the same. Except that the chain can go backwards so you can't use stuff like chain tensioners with FG (which only work when the chain goes in the forward direction.)
