Well, I guess I'm trying to find out what sort of advice or experience folks have with such an arrangement -- which is really just an extreme case for what I have on my model. It seems to me that, as you increase chain wrap with such a setup, you correspondingly increase the chain's desire to tear the idler off its mount entirely.  I'm just curious to learn what folks have found to be a happy medium or that I'm concerned for nothing.
