Replace chain roller?

@calum really? Seems to be genuine. Can't get them much cheaper from what I can find.
-
-
@calum were the rollers from the Yamaha factory "grooved" like the one you linked or straight like the one I linked? Perhaps my existing isn't in desperate need if replacing.
-
@irongamer727 No, the OEM ones are flat.
But I dunno, seems a lot for some chain rollers if you ask me.
-
Good news! Found flat chain rollers in a local shop nearby. Will get them for sure. So much nicer than having to wait until April 20th if I ordered from eBay.
-
@irongamer727 the chain wears the roller to fit the chain perfectly
-
What do you think about making a chain roller from wood? Stupid idea?
-
@irongamer727 yeah that’s pretty stupid dude
why would you want to do that they’re only a few pounds and the wood would rot chip splinter and just not function properly I really don’t see an upside to using wood unless you do? -
@declan it's harder than it seems to get a decent chain roller that doesn't include 3 weeks shipping.
-
@irongamer727 it really isn’t bud or atleast I don’t think so do you know the size of your roller the bearing size IE 12mm?
-
@declan 12mm inner diameter, 35 outer and 25 28mm wide.

@irongamer727 your right lol- https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Black-Adjuster-Chain-Tensioner-Bolt-On-Roller-Motorcycle-Chopper-ATV-Pit-Bike-UK/162473785599?hash=item25d43138ff:g:kHEAAOSwmgJY8EP2
The best compromise I can find on ebay -
@declan and at that price I might as well buy OEM. Thinking about fabricating myself.
-
@irongamer727 why not buy oem then? Money scarace?
-
@irongamer727 like @Calum said penny board wheels are a good start
