Do gates make extra long belts? cos I might as well have an alfine and with the 1/2.4 ratio crankset, it would give me a massive gear range. Oh I wish I had more money and order a rob english like BRP.

Dont think so.

I'm very happy with my Metropolis IG crankset - NuVinci hub set-up.

When heavily loaded (carrying a kid or two) I cruise around in direct drive. Fine tuning my ratio with the NuVinci hub.

Unloaded I have the cranks in overdrive.

Although I can easily hit a good speed in the highest gear, I've never used the lower end. So I'm considering dropping a tooth off the back.
