Edit:  Added a step file thats a magnetic version of the tool, so no bolts needed, just some 8mm magnets.  They are a tight fit, so i recommend a dab of super glue and some flat pliers to press them into place.

 

This is a printable version of a chain alignment tool for motorcycles.  It will help set your rear wheel alignment with the chain for proper tracking and wear.

You will need a 4mm rod and a few bolts to tighten down the tool.  You can resize if you need to for bigger or smaller chains.  Design based on “fotion pho” tool which i feel is unreasonably expensive for what it is.

 

Added a second file with a spring pin using a 6mm e clip and spring to help attach to the chain.

 

----New V3 is here.  Changed the pin to have a deeper groove for e clips and springs.  Also increased the size of the head of the pin for easier grip

 

E-clips can be found at McMasters p/n 98543A113


No supports needed if printed as oriented.  Recommend brim for the pin.

Print speed of 50mm/s and recommend at least PLA+ at 210c/70c bed temp

30% infill for strength
