    Default Does Belt Tension Vary with the wheel on the ground or in the air?

    I’ve noticed that if I jack up the frame so that the rear wheel is off the ground, the belt tension is quite a bit less than with the full weight on the wheel. That being said, should the tension be adjusted while jacked up or not? Also does the tension increase when sitting on the bike, and even more so with a passenger?
