I did Baldy rd. on my bicycle and when I got to the village I cut over to grr and then down to gmr. I saw two cars total on grr and gmr. It was during the week. Would have been a blast in my car. Do you know gmr well?

What size is on the input shaft 8rib pulley on this kit? I measured it looks close to 3.25” but 928 sells both that and a 3.15” so well within margin of error of my measurement, and how small can we go? Are you calling the 8rib pulley the SC pulley and going for 2.85”?I imagine the limiting factor when you get too small of a pulley there you can no longer achieve proper tension with the tensioner. And since people usually go to a smaller SC pulley with a larger idler instead, does that mean this stock pulley is already nearly at tension limit being as small as can without issue?

GMR was our 7am stomping ground, we were the longboarders there early morning before it got too busy/cops. Ventured over to baldy for a bit just to even attempt it and that’s about all i could do such a steep road into hairpins
