Default Re: pullys (dstring20)

Most underdrive pulley are poorly balanced and could damage your crank or it's bearings.

I've never heard of overdrive pulleys but underdrive pulleys ad a larger pulley to the dynamo and a smaller one somewhere else to keep the belt from getting slack.
The larger pulley causes the dynamo to turn slower and draw less power from the engine. So I guess overdrive pulley do the opposite. but why?
Maybe for a larger dynamo on a big audioinstall.
