Setting the belt tension on the TC Max is pretty much the same as any bike. To check the tension download the Gates Carbon Drive app. Place your phone near the belt and pluck it so it vibrates.

To adjust the tension first loosen the spindle.

Then loosen the lock nuts on the adjusters.

Unscrew the adjusters a small amount equally on both sides.

Then re-check the tension using the app.

Once you get within the range of 77-94Hz turn the wheel and check again a few times with the belt in different positions. Then tighten up the lock nuts and spindle. The spindle should be torqued to 88Nm. Check again with the app and if it's still within spec your all done!
