The belt really takes the work out of maintainance. With no excess oil around, the mud just falls off. As opposed to being mixed with drivechain oil and stuck on, only to be removed with cleaning agents.
You also dont need to worry about powerwashing, or using strong soaps. So long as you keep these away from your hub, bb, and headset bearings.
I just take a hose to my belt drive bike. The shite is far more easy to remove, and I dont need to worry if I've accidently degreased my chain. Win win.
No PM recieved. But I'll dig out the grips tonight. They're in a massive heavy box on the top shelf in the work room. Typical, I've literally just put it back after having it down for my fatty build. Feck it ;)
