That wouldn’t’t worry me if so as the bearing’s doing all the hard work. I wouldn't worry about it either, because I'm not riding it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's basically and idler pulley.. it only transfers rotation to the wheel...it doesn't carry any load...ill keep and eye on it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel Posted 10 hours ago Author Share Posted 10 hours ago At cruising speed there isn't much force on the pulley....it's not like a wheel bearing holding up 1300 pounds...and when I go around corners at 2.76 G you're talking about the weight of and entire bush elephant bearing down on the bearing...

That should lock the back wheel nicely when the belt splits and jams itself between the swing arm and the pulley. I'm sure that won't happen if course.
