Re: Chain drive vs. cogged belt drive(timing belts)
Chain!!! #35. We have used it with no diffuculties whatsoever. It ran our drivetrain last year. We ran an extremely high ammount of torque through them and they never failed. We ran at 2.5 feet per second with 4 2" wide 8" diameter IFI drive wheels with the wedgetop tread material. We never met anyone we couldn't push, at regionals or at Nationals. We bent our frame, which pinched the chian between the wheel and the frame causing it to rub and misalign. Never fell off and never broke. Can a belt do that?!
