Replace chain roller?
-
Pretty sure you an just replace them with like penny board wheels. I'm sure i've seen that somewhere.
@calum how important are they? Seems to be quite hard to get hold of new

@calum really? Seems to be genuine. Can't get them much cheaper from what I can find.

Just go for something like that.

@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.
@calum I agree.

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.

The best compromise I can find on ebay@declan and at that price I might as well buy OEM. Thinking about fabricating myself.
