Converting Carson Thor (Vulcano) 23 mm to standard 17 mm Hex wheels

The Carson Thor (also named Vulcano) has special 23mm Hex wheels which are virtually not available anymore. The solution is to convert it to default 17 mm Hex wheels

I've used this hex wheel hubs, they are a litte bit narrower than the original but that's ok

 Thunder Tiger TS-4N Belts the belts are possible to find as generic replacements however not always over the internet, I consulted a customer of us who is in the belt industry and he has got a source for the replacements for one of his suppliers within 5 minutes. Rear belt Total length of belt: 162 mm Profile S3M Width: 5 mm Middle Belt Total length of belt: 177 mm Profile S3M Width: 5mm Front Belt Total length of belt 417 mm Profile S3M Width 5mm Originally they were made by Bando. There is a little space left so it could be possible that even 6 mm width will fit, but this has to be tried out. 6 mm is far more easily available than 5 mm. A complete set is available from Ebay here: https://www.ebay.de/itm/352784648118
