I mean... this only applies to the chassis, so perhaps I would attempt a belt system for the first stage. However, I'm using a large ratio for that stage, so I'm not even sure if there are the right pulleys for my configuration.
-Is there an online store that specializes in pulleys? It's been a while since I last been there, and my memory is fading away... -_-
-Also, is it possible to make your own pulleys? If so, is there a link to how to do that?

SDP-SI has them, but seeing that in this case you have a very large reduction you wouldn't be able to pull it off and still maintain adequate belt wrap without idlers.
