Has anyone ever tried to figure out the belt drive ratio on any vacuum cleaner that uses such a configuration? The belt drive ratio between motor shaft and brush roll will play a part in the final RPM which will lower the actual motor speed (that is, before brush engagement).

You need to figure out:
*The diameter of the motor shaft
*The diameter of the belt
*Motor speed before belt drive equation
