how much longer are you going to run single speed and how much longer do you think your hub is going to last.

you have a serious hanger breaking problem, i have never snapped one! i have bent a few however so you have to file them down to get the axel back in. And the word you were loking for is chain breaker, a chain device normaly goes around your chainring to keep it from comming off, and silent clutches are better then hope  well maybe not in weight but otherwise. |

becoz my chain was WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY WAYWAYWAYWAY too tight and so there was unrivalled amounts of stress on my chain and cranks and hub .

Not quite, When your chain is that tight it is more likely to break, cranks should be fine, a fair bit of stress on the bb and a shit load on the freehub. Because the chain gets so much leverage on it and because the tension comes from the same direction the whole time it screws it up bad.
