toothed rubber drive belts

Belt-driven systems often feature automatic tensioning, which helps maintain optimal contact between the belt and pulleys. This is crucial for ensuring longevity and reliability. Additionally, the absence of Metal-on-Metal contact drastically reduces wear and tear, resulting in lower maintenance costs. Riders can enjoy longer intervals between service checks and tune-ups, which is a significant advantage for those who use their bikes for daily commuting.

A timing belt set refers not only to the timing belt itself but also includes related components such as the timing belt tensioner, idler pulleys, and sometimes the water pump. Collectively, these parts work together to synchronize the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft(s), allowing for precise timing of the engine’s intake and exhaust valves. When properly aligned and functioning, this set helps prevent engine misfires, loss of power, and catastrophic engine failure.
