#89473 Midnight1700 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 100 Re:Belt adjustment 6 Months ago   I was wondering the same thing. My bike only has about 2500 miles on it right now. But I was thinking about changing the belt every time I put new tires on. Would this be a bit overkill? My thought is, while the tires are off, it's just a simple process to change out the belt and prevent having one go bad while on a ride.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #89481 Flashback (Moderator) The devil to pay, and no pitch hot Moderator Posts: 4375 Re:Belt adjustment 6 Months ago   I think that would be WAY overkill Midnight1700. It's my understanding that these belts should easily last 50 thou under normal conditions. I believe a good visual inspection and cleaning at tire changing time would be smart..   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/05/30 09:18 By Flashback.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #89491 Midnight1700 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 100 Re:Belt adjustment 6 Months ago   What is the typical mileage one can expect on a set of tires? Maybe changing the belt every other tire change? I try to be a bit proactive in preventing me from having to push my bike anywhere   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/05/30 10:09 By Midnight1700.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #89507 DocShadow (Admin) Hmmmm .... send beer Admin Posts: 10794 Re:Belt adjustment 6 Months ago   Tires last around 10 k miles. As Flash said re belt .... easily 50 k. The belt is not cheap so it's no use throwing money away if you don't need to .... unelss you're throwing it may way.
