I've seen a few teams solely use them in their drivetrain; Out of the few I talked with, only one team had issues. I believe they had Acetal sprockets without metal hubs and cut keyways into that; those keyways eventually failed. The other teams used the metal hubbed ones or attached them with bolts/pins to the wheels in a dead axle application.
