Does your team design make all of these products?
Most of our products that are geared towards competitive robotics are developed with the help of FIRST teams.....this product was developed by Team RUSH, frc27.

Disclaimer: Our company is independent of FIRST Robotics and is not associated with any team.

And have you ever configured this system so it was completely gear-driven? It would add a little weight, but I think you would save on the hassles of chain.
No. In my opinion, #25 chain, when properly aligned and tensioned is almost foolproof. Any hassles I've ever encountered with chain have come from master links, poor shaft support or improper tensioning......ever product we create attempts to solve this problem. Which is why we feature #25 chain!
