Thanks! We need more research and ideas like this. As for me, I got a little OEM hot-belt stink when I was driving 35mph in "high" on twisty turns so I was on it and then off it over and over. It made me wonder-- There's of course a 'correct' way to drive when you have a CVT. I heard these belts like to be engaged rather than feathered, but perhaps I'm wrong about that when it comes to trail driving vs rock crawling. Does anyone know the ultimate rules for driving style and making belts last?
I'm far from an expert but if you're gonna feather the belt then you need heavier weights to allow the belt to have better engagement. 54.7 or 57.0 weights are good as well. The difference in the belts I'm using is the material they are made from. The redline is less likely to stretch than the OEM. I'm only on this belt for this trip and when I get home I'm gonna take it apart and verify all my work again. Shifting is another big issue. Don't adjust the linkage. Trust me, it's the belt from my data and visuals. The 1mm difference made a world of difference. Thanks for watching. 🙏
This belt worked really good and I recommend it for my Segway and I think you will like it too.

So for higher speed and lower rpm,, one would change the weights too heavyer,?
I need lower rpm when i drive on roads.
Stay with a stock setup. Lower rpm and faster overall.
