Whining sound from the lower rear

Ok. I felt it several times when I was looking around. How much play should there be? It has Id say an inch of movement up and down on the lower side?

The different bikes have different specs and whether it is set with a rider weight on it or not. Check in the manual for the proper setting on your bike. It's also checked by using a tool that applies 10 lbs of force to the belt and measuring the deflection.

Glider was right. My belt was just not tight enough. I may add some dry silicon anyway just because. Thanks

Glad you got it sorted out. Belts can be blamed for a good percentage of the noises in these bikes when they aren't adjusted to the correct tension.
