We sold quite a few Bridgestone toothed-belt drive the last
time the fashion came around. Almost as good as a chain, but
with a bonus "my bike is special" factor.

chain, belt, whatever. Both systems have advantages and
disadvantages but I don't find belts compelling. If you do,
then by all means try one.
