Re: Chain Tensioning

Has anyone used the nautilus cams from WCP? We are planning on incorporating them into one of our off-season drive bases this fall as the chain tensioner. I guess I don't understand what the big deal is about using tensioners anyway; why would that be less of a problem in a design than doing c2c calculations? I've worked with teams that have done both, with both chain and belt, and it seems to me that the advantage would tilt toward adjustability.
