George Haining reduces belt skip in the X-5! |
|
Here are a few pictures sent to us from a customer in Europe who came up with a neat way to increase belt wrap and essentially reduce the amount of belt skip that occurs under acceleration without sacrificing drive train efficiency. He has added a second idler pulley that makes the belt wrap around the bottom of the drive pulley a couple more teeth. |

Nice view of the two pulleys. |
