Gates belts should be good for a lot longer than that though obviously cargo-ing is more stressful for them than a solo bike. Do you have it tensioned correctly? And what is the "chainline" like? They are very sensitive to both

From my experience, double check that none of the teeth are missing.
My belt started slipping one day, and when I stopped to check it, nine teeth had come off the belt! 😱
Only time it's ever happened in about 12 years of using them, so it was quite unexpected.

Advice needed - my belt drive has partially slipped off the rear cog a few times in the last week. I can get it back on by removing the wheel and resituating it, but obviously it's not ideal, particularly because it forces the enviolo cables to rotate into the highest gear - so I have to spin home each time it happens. Probably not great for the belt to do that.
Is it the belt being stretched that is causing it? It's done 2500 miles.
