Hey fellas,

My vega mini dupe is starting to hang up a bit, i took a look under the hood and I see that the chain has worn some grooves in the brass bushing it rides on. Anybody have a similar problem....and a solution? Will a tefflon sleeve the same size work better?

thanks for the input

MS

They all seem to wear out as mine has also mad
I have talked to and seen guys put another Brass bushing on the shaft and then again I have seen it replaced with a Teflon bushing as you said. Both are options.
But we shouldn't have to replace it, you would think after all these years they would have found a solution.

Well being that mine never came with one I put some steel tubing on it. It has been working well for me.
