Re: pic: GEAR & CHAIN IN TUBE 8WD

I agree that exact c-c is a viable option, and having the chain stay on because of proper tensioning and spacing is preferable, but I think having a tight fit inside the tube adds an extra measure of safety in preventing failures. Hopefully this would be redundant, and the tube would never need to keep the chain on the sprocket, but taking advantage of this peace of mind is one of the benefits of running chain in tube.
