Ironically it was buying the belt drive stuff that worried me most about doing that build from the ground up but since buying the Cube I’ve swapped out the rear pulley for a larger one to drop the gearing a bit, bought a spare belt and have now bought a replacement front pulley because of the issues I’m having, that’s the full drivetrain!
Having the Cube has still definitely been worthwhile though as it’s shown me that that type of bike is something I want and I’ve gotten the miles in on it.
