Re: pic: Team 449 Hex Drive

I think Andrew's point is best summarized as this drivetrain has two complete, independent frames that are likely strong enough on their own. If they were better integrated, a lot of framing could be eliminated.

The support for the angles also doesn't even need to be a separate frame. For a very minimal (and very strong support), see what we did here.
