so this broke off today but dont know what its called

[Keith Haddad]

Ive only had my bike about 4-5 months and I decided to try and add the upgrades I got with the bike and Ive had one hex screw strip so not sure what Im going to do about that yet but then this happened.

Take a look at the pictures.
Is this something I can bring to a repair person and they'd be able to easily replace?

Thanks for your time.

i believe that part is known as the "chain tensioner"...

should be very easy to replace by any bike shop.

rad should be able to tell you whether it's an industry standard part, not proprietary...bike shop should be able to tell also.

the part that broke off is a tensioner or deraileur.

looks like you did a single speed conversion.

i am not sure if it is a standard part you can get from local bike shop as it looks like it may have custom mount thereby it may be custom or proprietary
