had a go on both terns; the gear cable routing and absolutely no access to chain pushed me to belt drive and e14. Deposit paid, should be able to collect next week.
the deore one looked like a nightmare to ‘work on’
Congrats. Bit of unsolicited advice - mark the Rohloff lockring when you get it and check it after a couple of days of riding. If it's moved, remove and reinstall it with blue loctite.
Yeah, that thing (8538.) You won't need to slacken the belt to drop the wheel.
Realizing now you need special tools to remove the lockring (belt whip and lockring tool) so I guess if it loosens, take it to your LBS and have them do the thing.
