Not as bad as Mavic Aksiums on a Look 585 Ultra...oh, hang on, that's what I've got.
There's so much wrong with that Geekhouse, a bit of price disparity between the components is the least of it.

Because the forward mounted tensioners mean the wheel can't slip forwards, so no real need for super tight axle nuts.

that's quite true, unfortuantely the Paul one is pretty rubbish, tend to unscrew itself very often to the point that I decided to just removed it entirely (the screw that is).

Loctite 222 is the one for screws which need adjustment.

im really quite into belt drives, i want one badly and my next fixed (itl be a while) will definatly be one.
however i really dont like that bike. i dont like geekhouse frames, somthing about the geometry just doesnt appeal to my aesthetics, and i still dont like those fugly forks.
the sugino crank looks crap with the belt guards on it. the bars while jazzy, id hate to ride with them, surely the tops are all but useless due to thier depth and i like the tops for climbing.
i dont see that the QR is a problem for the reason scott stated. do the belt drive sprokets fit standard hubs, or do they have thier own proprietary hub that only come with QR's?

thats why he changed to his own design recently. -

Nah, just not a track-hub... is it fixed?
