After doing some math when trying to figure up some gear ratios, I found that chain is of the essence when designing the robot this year. If four of the extra large sprockets were used, almost all of the chain would be used to just wrap around the sprockets. Leaving very little chain to use for gearing down or for other applications on the robot. Is it possible the amount of chain that can be used could be upgraded by a few feet? If not, does anyone know how to conserve enough chain to get the correct gear ratio?
