So I have lost both of my chain tension adjuster "caps" that are situated at the end of the swing-arm.

Think my chain is on the way out so I adjust the tension at regular intervals, so I make sure they are secure after the axel nut has been torqued. For some reason the long torx screw loosens then the "lid/cap" turns and hits the sprocket or the brake disc and brakes off.

So in the future I am going to use duct tape to prevent them from moering off again(like others do, as I have read)

So my questions are: 1)Where can I get them doppie/cap/adjuster thingies, ACME on Francis road,Rispark, Joburg-South???

2) What can I do to prevent losing them in the future?
 
Thanks in advance.
