Re: A collaborative WCD reference book

What's interesting about WCD is a lot of teams have really opened up what they mean in the last few years and doing things that were considered not kosher previously. For example, skipping any form of chain tensioning.

Define 'wrong'. I've recently been experimenting with an exact c-c chain setup to remove the need for a tensioner. Yes, chain would have to be replaced, but it seems better than relying on people who might over or under tension the chain.
