    the number of teeth is not as critical as pitch, spacing, and belt construction

    None are marketed as an alternative to the OEM...
    But you could check with Gates, and see if they could cross-reference something.

    Default Don't know. ..!!

    there have been threads on the subject in the past. you could search for them but in the end I don't think there is a substitute for the OEM belt. We have the longest belt in the industry and the new model has one even longer...They do work well and last a long time when maintained properly. Cost can be handled by looking online places like ebay, amazon, cheapcycleparts.com etc.

    It doesn't and like you it was just out of curiosity in case something happens like getting into some chip seal on my June Ride.
