I love belt drive bikes. We admire simplicity as an ascetic, especially when it comes with better functioning design, together they shine. The belt drive bicycle is that to me, it fascinates. It is so bare in its approach yet so complex and beautiful in its execution and purpose, moving forward fast. The Gates Carbon belt drive system is a classic, it makes any type of bike, I don’t know “shine”.

The freedom of noise free drive, no derailleurs, no grease and endless set up options. Gears or no gears, this is a classic design that works as a component and can be easily integrated into what ever bike system you use.

This is great design, classic, beautiful, functional and adaptable.

Beautiful objects, even if you don’t know what they are, it draws you in….

and if that wasn’t enough, look at this eighteen speed internal gear system, matched with a gates drive system, this could be nervana! Could someone make this bike for me, oh yeah, and for under a thousand dollars…
