3 CIM Gearbox on the front wheel

[Jancerem]

Hi Everyone, my team have a 3 CIM Flipped Gearbox with a West Coast Drivetrain that is in the middle, as the Image below. And now, we want to put our Gearbox in the front wheel to balance better the weight in our robot, so the transmission will move up with a double sprocket, connected to the middle wheel and the back wheel, we are worried if that will make problems to the transmission after a time? And what would you advice, thank you so much.

Do one chain run from the transmission to the middle wheel, and a separate run from the transmission to the far wheel.

You shouldn’t have any overloaded chain problems, and there’s nothing that the transmission would complain about regardless.

What @troy_dietz mentions above is exactly what we did last year, and we saw no unusual issues.
