Re: pic: 1771 possible summer prototype
One thing that you cant see well in the render is the tensioning device. it is an axle with a sprocket on it between each wheel that we tighten 2 screws and it raises the axle, thus tightening the chain. This past season we did the slots for the wheels for tensioning and although it worked well, it required removing bumpers to tension. The new system does not require removing anything. So for a small weight gain we save a lot of time during competition.
