Belt drive SS cross bike.
Anyone gote one or is it not niche enough? 😉
Who actually makes one?
I have a belt drive on a Pompino - does that count?
How did you get the belt through the frame?
The only one I can see is Spot Brand and I can't see an easy or affordable way to get my hands on one of those...
oddjob, that would only be niche if it was also bamboo... 😀

As soon as it has been mentioned on here, it ceases to be niche.
The frightening thing is that bamboo is just too mainstream these days 😉

Easy. Hacksaw 🙂
I think I have posted the details of the conversion on here somewhere.

such splendid work goes into his fancy pomp and you want to know about his cable end lol 😉
Yep! Although now you mention it, belt-drive hub-gear pompino, that's a nice bike. But, it doesn't solve my ordinary cable end woes.

No detail too small to be ignored 🙂
Your bike shop can get them for you. You get a bottle full of multicoloured cable ends.

I like to limit my projects to man in a shed type with hand tools stuff. It's much more satisfying - and it's boring when you take it to someone else to do.
You must have been sweating a bit as you were running out of the track end to get the belt tight !
A slightly larger rear cog fixed that 🙂
That setup never moved in use though - one advantage of Sturmey-Archer hubs is the extremely tough axles and nuts so I was able to clamp it down hard.
