How to read the Betlt Teeth shown in:
" Loaded Bike: Effect of Final Drive changes on links & wheel position"

The number of teeth shown in the 'Stock', 'Current' and 'Custom' columns are fixed and will not automatically change when changing pulleys!
This number of teeth does not change as it is assumed that you keep your current belt. Keeping this belt it calculates the new 'resulting' pulley distance. Now if that means a distance which you cannot set because you wheel is already completely in front or rear position, then you can enter a new number of links (in Custom setup) to check how many teeth you would need to get a big enough adjustment range.

So please do not interpret these numbers as:
"Oh, it still needs the same number of teeth even though I changed pulleys..."



But do:
• Check the Sprocket Distance Difference in Custom Setup compared to Current Setup (in this case: -0.74 inch closer together so move rear wheel to front)

• Check on your bike if this distance is still available: in this case can you move your rear wheel from it current position, 0.74 inch forwards ?

• If shown move distance is available you can use the pulleys from Custom Setup without buying a new belt and keeping the one with the numbers of teeth entered in Custom setup.

• If not, change the number of teeth in Custom Setup field in this table until you get a pulley distance difference that is available.  This means buying a new belt and you should set the belt wear for the new 'Custom'-belt to 0% . Try 136 teeth. By the way, belts can have an odd number of teeth so you can increment or decrement with 1 tooth at a time! 136 would look like this:

• Now when using a new belt with 136 teeth and belt wear set to 0%, you only need to move your rear wheel, from it current position, 0.01 inch forwards. Most likely that is possible but you have to check on your own bike of course.
