Has anyone tried this?


How much stronger is the wider belt compared to the thin one?
On paper, looks to be about 20%.

In  reality, it looks better than 20%. Compare to the wider belts on on the 2018 DS or DSR or the wider belt on the 2018 SR. Or later.

The SR/F doesn't count as it has even a wider belt than any of the earlier models.

The 220T 14mm belt fits 2013 - 2016 year models Zero S, SR, DS, DSR, FX and FXS

The larger 158T 17mm belt fits 2017 - 2019 year model Zeros fitted with the wider belt.

Also the wider belt (17mm as its part of the afford mentioned kit) is exactly 21.428571428571428571428571428571428571% wider then the stock 14mm.
I think "about" was/is close enough for this discussion.
