That is a scary downhill orange71 I doff my cap to you
Cheers for the comments guys. The Marys do look good. I'll have a scout around on the on-one site.
I think you're right on the tensioner. It's a 40/20 ratio, which seemed to be be just the wrong combination to get the chain nice and short. I wanted to use the 'push-up' on the tensioner, but there was still slack at max push, so had to go for pull down - looks like it needs a bit more pull. Though if too tight, it pulls the chain to the side of the roller and it rubs. Next weekend's job.

Billinjah - thanks, I was toying with the idea of a half link chain, but then I got impatient and got what they had at the LBS. May need to rethink.
Green Rabbit - if you see a red bike with big handle bars chained up on the sea front when it's blowing and a red Ozone Instinct on the water - that's me. I live two streets up from Goring green (so not a long ride!)
