Re: Where to buy gears for belts
First off, what you want is a pulley, secondly your best bet is either SDP/SI or B&B Manufacturing. You should be able to plug that belt style in and select you pulley style and size. To help with your search I looked that belt up, I'm guessing you read 5MR500 off of the belt directly. From a google search it looks like that is a Gates Powergrip GT2 Style belt. (It's not shaped like a V right?) Searching for pulleys that work with 5mm GT2 should probably get you what you want.
