Built for hardtail choppers, bobbers, drag bikes, café racers, minibikes, and garage-built custom motorcycles, the MonsterCraftsman Clamp-On Spring Loaded Motorcycle Chain Tensioner with Black Powell Peralta Wheel is designed to help control chain slap, reduce drivetrain vibration, and maintain proper chain tension under real-world riding conditions.
Fabricated in the USA from heavy-duty steel, this universal motorcycle chain tensioner features a precision-machined clamp bracket that mounts directly to your frame tubing for a clean, simple installation with minimal fabrication required. Ideal for stretched motorcycles, rigid frames, custom fabricated builds, and high-horsepower applications where long chain runs can create excessive chain movement and drivetrain harmonics.
Designed for builders who demand durability, function, and clean fabrication styling, this spring-loaded chain tensioner automatically applies constant pressure to the underside of the chain during acceleration and deceleration to help reduce:
- Chain slap
- Chain whip
- Drivetrain vibration
- Premature chain and sprocket wear
- Chain noise
- Chain bounce on hardtail and stretched motorcycles

Why Use a Motorcycle Chain Tensioner?
Long chain runs commonly found on hardtail choppers, stretched motorcycles, and custom fabricated frames can create chain slap, vibration, drivetrain instability, and premature wear on chains and sprockets. A properly designed spring-loaded motorcycle chain tensioner helps maintain consistent chain pressure throughout acceleration and deceleration while improving drivetrain stability and overall chain control.
The clamp-on design allows the tensioner to be mounted in a variety of positions depending on your custom motorcycle setup, making it ideal for one-off fabricated motorcycles and custom garage builds with difficult clearance situations.
Built with pride in the USA by riders and fabricators who understand real-world motorcycle abuse, custom fabrication, and performance drivetrain setup.
