Very interesting. What is your sprocket setup (input/output)? I would probably recommend going with #35 chain in a drive situation. #25 is more suited for arms and other lower-stress mechanisms. Have you considered traction wheels or are you concerned about budget. Obviously you don't want to break the bank. How far is the center wheel lowered?
