Re: pic: Better Sprocket Assembly with AndyMark Parts

We've use double-sprocket dead-axle drive trains in 5 of our 6 years, and every time we've only used the bolts it was designed for, along with appropriate spacers. We have never had an issue with this set up. Never sheered a bolt, never twisted it when it shouldn't have. This certainly looks like a great solution... but it's a solution to a problem we haven't seen. Is it common for teams to sheer bolts in this setup?
