WAY!

There are two rubber doughnuts that sandwich the spokes and the sprocket. I thought I would have all kinds of spoke trouble with that setup but I never have had a spoke break due to that setup. What I did have trouble with is the coaster brake hub needing grade 25 ball bearings and packed with high temperature grease made for use with disk brake automotive hubs.
