How to measure the correct belt drive tension? Its all vague lawyer speak as far as I am concerned. A way to escape warranty claims. I err on the side on my 30+ years of experience in the field. |

How to measure the correct belt drive tension? It says "excessive" twisting, 90 degrees on the longest point to point is not excessive. Any manufacturer wishes to overstate precautions to prevent failure of their product, this is where common sense comes in. They said the same thing about automotive cam belts, which I never had a failure in 20 years due to mishandling. |

Rolling dismount: leg crosses over in front of you or behind? Safety factor depends on your age, sense of balance and skills, I have done it over a dozen different ways when younger, it was sort of a signature when we were kids, who could do the coolest rolling dismount. |
