Default Cam Chain Tensioner gone **** up

Today my tensioner decided to give up the ghost, luckily I was 300 yards away from the bike shop I was going to.Was able to get the bike home in the back of a van,2 mates are mechanics there.Which is the best tensioner to get, original or manual.

Cheers Paul.

even oem replacements will go bad, so a manual cct is the way to go. what brand cct you go with makes no different, they all look different, but they're all just a bolt in a piece of aluminum and a jam nut. ive used APE, PSR, and currently have a cheapo ebay one on my track bike. no issues ever.
Just set it every spring and you'll be good all summer.
