My question isn't whether it can handle torque, it's how well the belt will respond to being compressed if you're trying to stop using your legs... and particularly how will it deal with going in one direction, and then quite suddenly the other (what I was really getting at was, if the belt were a little more slack than ideal, how would it perform then).
Time will tell... being used in even 1000 bikes doesn't mean it will stand the test of time.
PS: and what's this internet thing I'm on? There was nothing wrong with semaphore!
