Default Carpet Setup

Hi All

Just bought my S411 and built it - lovely kit. Ran it for the first time on Thursday eveing straight out the box and seemed pretty good but has anyone got a rubber/carpet setup they could post/pm me to get me going a bit quicker?
On that note the drivetrain seems quite tight out of the box - does the belts need slackening off a little in people's opinion?
I'm runnning 10.5 and it just seems not to be as smooth as it could be.
Also what size spurs fit? I'm currently using an 81t 48dp spur but would prefer to get back to 64dp but need a ratio of around 8.00 FDR so maybe around the 100t spur would fit?

Cheers

Paul
