getting pretty close to being fully sorted out. going to have to switch from a "pulley" type chain idler to a sprocket. The side plates of the chain have cut through nylon bearings, steel sleeve with a bronze bearing inner, bronze bearing outer with a rubber bushing/steel sleeve inner and the shoulder bolt. even though they all had good free rotation, they only last about 10-15 minutes. NBD, just a little surprising how fast its chewing through this stuff.
