I know, I wasn't referring to the belt system. I just wanted to say that in case people who haven't seen the method are reading this thread, because when talking to people in the pits at competition, they ask if we are ever afraid of the chain failing inside the tube where we don't have easy access to it and if we should cut access holes.
