I’m considering building a single speed MTB with belt drive, to be used during the winter (studded tyres etc). The idea of using a belt drive is quite fascinating. I got the idea from reading about Phil Wood’s belt drive components.
Ideally the total cost should land between EUR 1,000 and 1,500. Unfortunately, the supply of MTB frames that would fit this price range seems very limited. One of the few ones I’ve found is a frame made by Nicolai, but just the frame costs EUR 1,000+.
