Re: Belt Drive Design Problem

1. We switched from chain to belts years ago, and are so glad we did. I would recommend that everybody do it!

2. If the wheel and the pulley are on the same hex shaft, the pulley shouldn't need to be attached to the wheel in any manner--the pulley turns the shaft, which turns the wheel.
