That's a fine looking analog rig you got there.  Glad to see you switched to tape instead of other belts.  My friends at Galibier and Redpoint are really into it.  They say the taller the tape, the better.  I believe they are using VCR tape, but their experiments have shown 1" tape to perform best.  Just far more prone to destruction (sort of non-intuitive).

I once suggested to see if they could get a pattern printed on it, like zebra stripes.  You could then use it as an rpm strobe.
