It keeps the chain tensioned so it does not bounce off the chainrings in the rough or on big hits.

If you want one, I bought one and it won't fit my chainstay. It's black and never been used. Interested? PM me.

BTW, I like the new Avatar.

I bought a Specialized P.3 with oversized rear stays.(Huge)
Anyways, you have a Gary Fisher right? It has normal sized stays and should fit. Tell me what model and I'll check with my GF dealer.

Just bought the frame and built it up. So, mine didn't but yes they did. The project started as a single-speed. Kinda like a BMX bike on steroids, but it has morphed back into an urban assault bike.

I have a '93 MT Tam. It should fit, the bike is steele so the stays aren't the big. How much do you want for it?

check out the reviews on the chain reactor on mtbr.com. I bought one cheap but it didn't work for me either. It wouldn't fit the chainstay on my GT. Try something else, don't waster your time or money.
