Glad that it worked out for you without having to change your belt. My suggestion to the OP was to see where he was with wheel adjustment BEFORE he installed the smaller front pulley. If his belt was already stretched to its longest limits there might not be enough adjustment to pull it back any further. I would not take for granted that just because you were able to shorten the wheelbase to accommodate a larger front pulley, that the OP would be able to lengthen the wheelbase enough to accommodate a smaller front pulley. If the belt had been running for many miles adjusted too tight, this may have stretched beyond its useful service limits.

 

I went down to a 30T trans sprocket...actually been thinking of going back to the stock 32T and doing the 68T rear pulley...after a year of riding after the change, I feel the rpms on my bike are bit to high...but everyone has there opinion and may feel the rpms are just right.
