Gilles Tooling Chain Adjusters & Axle Protectors
Gilles Tooling chain adjusters and axle protectors. This page has AXB and TCA chain adjusters and GTA front and rear axle protectors, mostly for Yamaha, with others for BMW, Honda, Suzuki, Aprilia, Ducati and KTM. Each listing names the model it fits in the title where it fits one bike.
Chain adjusters
Gilles Tooling says its chain tensioners give precise and lasting chain tension, and are CNC-milled from aluminium. The TCA has a vernier scale so the rear wheel position can be read off in millimetres. The AXB, which Gilles calls a chain tensioner and quick-change system, stays in the swing arm when the rear wheel is fitted and can be used with the original axle nut. Most AXB listings also note a special screw for adjusting the axle in both directions, and Gilles says the AXB-H01-B has a paddock stand adapter fitted directly to it.
GTA axle protectors
Gilles describes the GTA protectors as plastic with an aluminium core, vehicle-specific, and says its front protectors reduce crash damage at the front axle and fork base. Front and rear versions are listed, and one front listing is made of milled aluminium.

Will it fit my motorcycle?
Each listing names the bike or bikes in its title where a part fits one model or a short list. The Fitment section on the listing gives the exact models and years from Gilles Tooling's own list. Some parts are universal or are spares, and the listing says so.
Are GTA axle protectors for the front or the rear?
Both are listed. Each title says Front, Rear, or Front or Rear, and some are quick-release versions. Front and rear sets for the same bike are separate listings, so order both if you want the pair.
