Carbon-fiber tensile cords are 25-30% stronger than Kevlar cords, providing extreme horsepower and drive-torque handling capability for 800cc and larger engines. Carbon fibers stretch 60% less than Kevlar fibers at the same load conditions, enabling faster acceleration and more consistent CVT shift performance. Trapezoidal top-notch and rounded bottom-cog belt designs increase belt flexibility and cooling, with smooth pulley intake and out-feed for smoother overall CVT operation. Patented designs and materials create a belt with outstanding operating life with dramatically reduce sidewall cord pull-out.
