Re: Center to Center with belts

When building exact c-to-c drivetrains with chains, we put the chain over the sprocket, then line the sprocket up with the bearing block, then skewer the whole thing with the shaft. When using belts I'd think the approach would be similar, though a bit more difficult because you need more tension in the belts.
