Their product looks exactly like Jesel's , so why would you buy something that you might have a problem getting a replacement belt or pulley ? I could see buying it if you were in Australia or were not available in the USA. Just to be different? LOL
it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

LOL it's not the same as a Jesel since it has an idler wheel which in my opinion makes it superior. i've run mine for the past decade & i'm very happy with it. the only downside part is that it didn't come with Torque fugures for the LH thread center bolt but apart from that its an awesome piece. i didn't have to modify anything to make mine fit & the extended ATI damper fits great.

the belts are a HTD drive belt, which are more than readily available. They aren't a proprietary belt like the Jesel unit is.

Cheap too, well cheap for us maybe, last one cost me $32. I've replaced my belt as being the only changeout part i thought weas neccessary.

The Jesel RAISED cam belt drive uses an idler. The std one does not use an idler...
FWIW I had an AMP belt drive on the Valiant. HAd a few small issues with it but I bought it in 2004 and think it was an early version. They helped me fix the fitment issues and it worked fine after that. Sold it to a member here and assume its still working well.
