As Andrey said, #35, the only reason we haven't been running #25 is down to our CNC not being accurate enough (for an unknown reason) to place the three bearing holes correctly.

We've run #35 the last 2 years exclusively as the mill has gotten worse, and used #25 no tensioners for pre-season 2013 and 2012. It's possible to do, and have very little issues, just a little beyond our machining capabilities at the moment. Chain in tube should allow us to do 25 even with our mill issues, which will have nice returns all around.
