They are not shown here, but we plan on using tensioners between each wheel to increase the total chain engagement on the center sprocket. I discussed this with a few of our mentors, and they didn't seem to be concerned. Can I ask what specifically is worrying about that style of chain? I am a bit skeptical of it since we have not used it before, but I don't want to discount it if the concept is valid.
