3.11.1 Belt tension
Measuring the belt tension
There are various ways to measure the tension of the drive belt. One of
these is the Carbon Drive app, which measures the tension based on the
natural frequency (Hz) of the belt length.

The Carbon Drive app works best in a quiet environment.
1. Remove the pedelec battery.
2. Load the app on to your smartphone.
3. Start the app.
4. Select the tension icon.
5. Switch on the microphone, click “Measure” and hold the phone over
the middle of the belt making sure that the microphone is pointing
towards the belt.
6. Pluck the belt so that it vibrates like a guitar string. The app converts
the sound into the natural frequency of the belt.
7. Turn the crank a quarter of a revolution and repeat the measurement.
8. Compare the frequency of the belt with the reference value to see if the
tension needs adjusting.
