BLADE 2.0 | USER MANUAL | 17
GATES CARBON DRIVE
BELT DRIVE
To incorporate a belt drive, the Blade 2.0 frame includes an
opening in the rear triangle. The front CDX chainring has
55Teeth, the rear cog has 20T, and the carbon belt has 122T.
Tensioning the belt properly is key for optimal performance.
Lack of belt tension can lead to ‘skipping’, too much tension
can damage other components and increase the wear of your
Carbon Drive System. The optimal tension with an IGH is 35-50
Hz (28-40 lbs). This can be measured using either the Gates
Krikit Tension Gauge, or the Gates Tension Meter Mobile APP
availabe on iphone and Android.
