Gilson/MontgomeryWards 525. Added a Chain Tensioner

[hammeron]

Chain has stretched, teeth are worn on the jack shaft sprocket and the rear wheel sprocket. I did not want to move the rear wheel backwards because the band brake was sitting perfect on the brake hub.

Decided to try out the tensioner we can get pretty inexpensively from various sources, I am very happy with the result.

A tensioner sure can save the day, and the walk of shame!
I was recently browsing ebay and noticed some nice 525 decals.

Peewee is the real deal. I have been purchasing from him for years and he will even make custom "one off" decals for you.

tchop77 and bayerwon are solid seller's as well when it comes to decals.
