Re: #25 Chain

1073 ran both belts and chains in our drivetrain this year. We had #25 chain going from the gearbox to the center wheel (it was placed above it due to space issues) and belts running from the middle wheel to the outer wheels. We didn't have any problems with the belts stretching, but we did implement some static tensioners on the #25 chain due to there being quite a bit of slack. No problems with stretching or snapped chains/belts at all
