The TorqLite is designed to mount directly to a standard derailleur hanger. As long as your frame has a derailleur hanger, it should be compatible, making it a straightforward solution for converting most multi-speed frames to single-speed.

Yes, converting to a single-speed setup typically requires you to resize your chain. You will need to remove the excess links to achieve the correct tension once the guide is installed.

Yes, the unit features an adjustable chainline. This allows you to fine-tune the alignment between your front chainring and rear cog, which is critical for preventing chain wear and ensuring smooth power transfer.

Constructed from aluminum and alloy, this guide is built to handle the rigors of daily riding. While it is robust, it is primarily designed for drivetrain efficiency rather than heavy-duty downhill impact protection.
