szakib<p>I emailed Gates:</p><p>"you shouldn’t flip your sprockets, as this will alter your beltline and negatively affect the lifespan of the drivetrain.</p><p>As far as the belt itself goes after talking with an engineer, if the drivetrain isn’t setup “fixed” and there are no braking forces being transmitted through the belt, you may find you’re able to extend the life by flipping it, but no guarantee as to how long it will last from there."</p><p><a href="https://freeradical.zone/tags/cycling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cycling</span></a> <a href="https://freeradical.zone/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BikeTooter</span></a> <a href="https://freeradical.zone/tags/BeltDrive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeltDrive</span></a></p>

Aaron In Minnesota<p>This mid drive combo motor + gearbox for ebike looks absolutely amazing. </p><p>Already a huge ebike fan, but this sort of innovation is the sort of thing that stands to transition an e-bike from fun and great for people accustomed to, or willing to become accustomed to, all the little quirks about bike drive trains, from when to shift, to what oil to use on a chain [not WD-40?!], etc. to "just works" </p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/-MBaP4PZpKY" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/-MBaP4PZpKY</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ebike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ebike</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bikeTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bikeTech</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beltdrive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beltdrive</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BikeTooter</span></a></p>
