Belt drive - or at a minimum a 1x
Could look at something with hub gear maybe?

This one is probably the closest within the budget:

Woodrup up in Leeds make something that would fit the bill. Talk to @TM, he's your man.

If it was my bike, the belt drive would be at the bottom of the list of those priorities. It'd be nice to have but the other criteria will have more of a direct affect on how the bike rides and functions I reckon. Admittedly a chain and sprockets, chainrings etc do need a decent amount of maintenance, especially in shit weather but it doesn't take a huge amount of time or effort to stay on top of it, especially a hub gear set up.

Hi all
I'm in the market for a new commuter bike. Willing to spend a bit more as I will use it daily but also looking for low maintenance hence was looking for something with a belt drive.
Requirements would be:
Was looking at a Fairlight or a Surly frame but they don't have a belt drive.. any other suggestions? budget would be +/- 3k
Thanks
