chains/sprockets on minibot

Are there any rules regarding limitations of chains and/or sprockets on the minibot? Can they be used?

Re: chains/sprockets on minibot

Please read <R92>. If it is not on the list of allowed parts, it is not allowed.

However: Chain and sprockets happen to be available as Tetrix parts. You could also make sprockets out of aluminum sheet or polycarb. Chain, though, beyond the Tetrix stuff, is going to be much harder to make out of the allowed materials.
