Hey guys I am working on a chain drive vmax with an R1 rear wheel, the wheel is setup for a 28mm axle and the swingarm I got from Sean is set up for a 20mm Axle. My plan is to mill the chain adjuster blocks and swingarm out to 28mm and make a matching axle as I dont have one anyway. would regular cold rolled solid steel material be strong enough? I would have to imagine it would be way over kill but have had a few tell me I should use hardened steel or shaft steel. Just looking for a little input from some of you guys that really know your stuff. If it matters I am shooting for having this bike around 250 ponies with a low comp big bore turbo motor.
