We use a generic mount on our kosmic/Tony only because the chassis supplier didn't remember to give us the Tony mount.

The sidepod mount will foul the mount if the chain is too short.

I use between 108 and 110 when running a 12/86 but we have about 15 Kg of lead on the seat so try and balance some weight forward.

You sometimes have to carefully machine the mount (get the hacksaw and coar$e file out!) and remove anything that touches the cross piece welds between the chassis rails.

The orientation of the mount can be put out quite a bit by the mount fouling the chassis welds.
