Would you pop on a chain and use this as an idler, or perhaps just design to gear it in?

This year, we used stock ballshifters, so we used the sub-optimal encoder setup with which those came.

Next year, I plan to incorporate the encoder mount into the first stage of our (custom) gearbox by extending the shaft out of the bearing, boring a slip-fit hole for the encoder shaft into it, cutting a 'x' pattern with a band saw, and then using a shaft collar to clamp the shaft in place. The top of the encoder will probably be held by a 3D-printed mount.
