A pulley device for a continuously variable transmission includes a shaft having first and second ends, the second end being formed with two axially separated ring grooves. A C-shaped ring is engaged with one of the two ring grooves disposed near to a movable conical plate. A ring-shaped retainer is arranged to restrain radial movement of the C-shaped ring. A snap ring is engaged with the other of the two ring grooves to restrain an axial position of the retainer.
