First try with you tube.

Someone asked for a vid of a belt tensioner in action (Brother EG I think)

Sorry for the crappy vid it's all I got!

Tread,
Thanks. Did you have the tension dialed back on that die spring or was that the tension you ride with? Do you still like it? Do you recommend it?

Thats the tension I run at EG, about 1 1/2 turns in.

Yes, I still like and recommend it.

No, I don't think the bike has to have it. I would call it more of a want, than a need.

I would love to add one of those to my Uly...but exchange rate stinks! I was trying to wheel and deal a little with Trojan-Horse, but no luck.

Tread,
I wonder what the spring constant is on that die spring. Any idea?
