How are teams mounting drivetrain encoders on WCD?

My team is experimenting with WCD this summer and we've begun discussing the various ways to go about mounting encoders. The three options we've thought of are mounting to the ouput shaft of the gearbox, mounting to one of the wheel axles, or utilizing a CIMencoder.

What have your teams used and what have you learned from it? Pros? Cons? Would you do anything differently?
