No, I've never done 3D programming before, but I'm young and naive, so I still think I can do it. ;) - Ryan M. [more]

Re: combo encoder and chain tensioner

Joe,

Thanks, those pix make it very clear. I had in mind spring-loading it on an arm, kind of like a bike derailleur, rather than mounted right on the frame. I think we'd be okay if there's not a lot of play to begin with, otherwise the slack being taken up during acceleration might give inaccurate readings.

- Steve
