Contitech are a well known supplier of belts (cam and others) & the price is attractive.

The red one doesn't have a belt - a duplex chain thats almost impossible to break!

Chains wear. Then they slip. Then the trouble begins ::)

On 4 pot TRs the tensioner (rubber!) wears first and you will always know when this has happened as ear plugs needed.  Owned a lot of TRs & know a lot about them - never known a TR chain to break!

Never known a V6 belt to break either...again its the tensioners/idlers that fail.
