Re: Mounting an arm potentiometer

In '05, '07, and this year, we've tapped off the first arm reduction sprocket (as seen here - that picture is from '07). Generally we mount an idler sprocket to help tension the chain, then tap the pot sprocket off of the idler. Keeps things simple. Couldn't find any other pictures, but you can try scanning through Joe's website for any that I may have missed.
