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.

Give us some chapter and verse, Andrew. Advantages, disadvantages, why
you fail to find belts compelling.
Rereading Lou's posts, I just discovered that a special frame is
required... That makes it expensive to buy one "just to try"!
