STuPiD TeXaNs! I live in Dallas - born in McKinney - hahaha!!!
The following explanations aren't in scale - forget about the
measurements - we're going for concept here.
Smaller crank pulley so instead of the crank only getting to turn
twice to move that horsepower robbing belt one foot, it now has the
luxury of getting to use three rpm to move it a foot. Like getting to
take off in first instead of tenth on a ten speed bike.... a 3.92
rear vs. a 3.21.....
The accessory pulleys are larger. For every foot that that belt
moves, it now only turns the accessory 1.5 times where it used to have
to turn it 2.5 times.
Crank gets to turn the accessories easier, and on top of that, it
doesn't have to turn then as much.
