It's funny that people see belt drives as new...Jericho cycles made one at least a decade ago.
Almost all the technological leaps in cycling over the past 20yrs have come from the MTB scene....from the use of new tubing materials and construction techniques to combined shift/brake levers on road bikes...it was the MTB that pushed things forward in cycling. Road bikes especially had barely changed in 50yrs before the MTB became popular.
Viva la MTB! :)
