When i had the frame built by indy fab they put the split in for me, the frame also had to go for testing to check that it was going to be stiff enough for the belt, the drive train cost me roughly £200 but the sprockets were used although they showed no signs of wear, and yes that’s an ebb which gives me the option to run different size sprockets and the same belt. The tension needed to get it to run properly would I think be harder to get on sliders
