It's really not a bad idea of BMX bikes since there are no gears (belt drives can't work on derailleur systems), they're light, dont' wear out a fast, and they're smooth like butter.



You need a special frame to allow the installation of the belt (they're one solid piece and can't be taken apart) and you need a belt tensioning device also, so they're very few frames (almost none) that would be able to do that without modification.



Still a cool idea, and seems to be catching on elsewhere in the cycling world. Fixie peeps are going ape turds over them. (but then again, they're also picking up smoking cigarettes again)
