• Hehe, @cornelius_blackfoot thanks for posting my question! Thought I'd go through the complete thread before asking it

    So yes, pulled the trigger on the whole Alfine/belt drive upgrade for my AWOL, with those gevenalle UX1 shifters in mind, but it turned out that there are two types of Alfine 8 hubs - old 500/501 models with low normal shifting and new 7000 ones with top normal shifting... Given that shifters must be compatible with only one of those types I can already feel my disappointment when it's not going to be the one I will get... Asked the question to gevenalle, but still waiting for an answer.

    Any thoughts appreciated

  • What happen with the Jtek? need a bit more information than "just slipping".

    Is it the cable or is it the lever that not staying put?

    Belt drive are great, but not really worth it as it does have a limited lifespan and are very expensive to replace.
