those were made for BMX but would work on plenty of track bikes as well. I believe VG made the original spur shaped chain tensioners. Those are knock offs :)

I believe Ryan is more correct than me; they do appear to be stout for bmx purposes!

VG (from San Jose I think) knockoffs as bicycletricycle says. You really only need one on the drive side. Looks good on your Boss Prime Time :)

VG made really cool parts. I like that mid school BMX stuff.
