Removing wheel with tensioner
I just installed an MKS tensioner. I like it - sure beats shoving the wheel with one hand while tightening the nuts with the other. Now for the dumb newbie question. If I need to remove the real wheel, to change a flat, do I need to slack the tensioner to get the chain off, or is there some way of yanking it without losing the tensioner adjustment?
