Are vibration dampeners normally used with belt drives?  Would they
be similar to Tracy's?  I have heard it said the belts naturally
absorb vibration but I am skeptical.   Paul,  in your spare time how
about knocking out a set of  belt drive plans--just to show what is
required.    :)    Jerry

I think you need one. Some of the coolest are found in the hubs
of off road motocross motor bikes. Here are some pictures.

I think they are present in MOST bikes wheel hubs.
At least these are, in my two (litre class) sport bikes.

Did anybody else not get these jpg's?

Morning, Paul...

Can't help you with who that was, but I can say that I got those two
jpegs just fine ... they were attached to your first email of 10:42 pm,
with the subject "belt drive", but on the other hand the second email in
that thread, posted here at  1:48 AM signed by Alfonso. had the names of
the pictures, but nothing attached.

Maybe whoever said that the jpegs were not available didn't relate those
file names to the previous email and realize it was part of the same
thread. On the other hand, if you intended to include them in that
second email, they weren't attached.

It is a possibility I guess. People make mistakes. Especially when
one gets older like me.
