Here are a few tips for maintaining your belt:
Step 1

Step 2
Avoid chemicals: avoid using strong chemicals to clean your belt, as this may damage the belt surface and affect its operation.

Step 5
Replace the belt regularly: Replace your belt regularly, depending on the use of your electric bike and the manufacturer's recommendations. If you notice signs of wear, such as cracks on the belt surface, it's time to replace it.
