Madison,

I like the simplicity and layout of your drivetrain. My question is, why are the front chains cantilevered so far inside? It seems to me that you could flip the gears 180 deg and move the chain out towards the rail, creating a slightly tighter package. Both of our #25 chain runs fit within an inch of the rails. Yours look to be hanging out much further than that. Overall, a great looking and performing drivetrain. Thanks,

Bengineer
