Don't know if this makes sense, but it does work decently well. Surprisingly the sprocket won't fall out unless directly disturbed...
This is a hack we used on 188 pretty effectively back in the early days.  |
lol thanks. i dont know how well this would work on a drive train but we can defiantly try it.
