Any idea if the
goodyear gatorback belts gain you any real efficiency? It would seem to me that they'd bend easier, thus not heat up (and as we know heat is energy), so you loose less energy to flexing. They don't claim greater efficiency on their site, but it seems like it might.

Operating benefits:
-Reduction in operating noise up to 15 dB
-Longer life to standard poly-v belts due to self cleaning effect, better flex capability, higher rib flank contact.
-Improved operating grip and longer flex life
-Belt design to keep consistent performance at high rpm
