Default Gates RPM belt vs standard and HD

Thought this was a great thread in regards to belts and belt issues some might have. I also added the link to Gates RPM belt description. They provide much less stretch... It sounds like you’d typically want to go one size longer in length than your typical black or green stripe Gates belt. The tensioner should be set at 30% travel opposed to 70%.
