Thanks for the responses. I am hesitant to use silicone spray or wax, etc., because I don't want to just "hide" the problem - I want to fix it. The bike only has 825 miles on it, and I don't ride in dusty conditions. It gets a little hot at the 5 or 6 traffic lights it takes me to get to open roads, but nothing like sitting in a traffic jam.
Is there any benefit to using a dial indicator to measure the run out of the rear pulley and / or belt, both for "out of round" or left to right? If so, is there a spec which is acceptable?
Craig Lee: How much looser are we talking?
