Abstract
A slide rail for a continuously variable transmission is disclosed that comprises at least one slide surface arranged for guiding a wrap-around mechanism that connects a first cone pulley pair to a second cone pulley pair of the continuously variable transmission to transfer torque therebetween. The slide rail includes at least one acceleration sensor arranged so that an acceleration of the slide rail perpendicular to the at least one slide surface can be detected by the acceleration sensor.
