I'm a noob. Is there a benefit to a belt? (Don't know what it's called.) I've never seen one before.

[Jand3rson]

I'm not convinced of it's superiority. They say it weighs half what a chain does, will never break, and you can get 60k miles from a belt. It's also dead quiet.

I just got a job as a BMX instructor at a sports camp up north. =)

Here's a new shot of my bike as it is currently, I really need to buy some new hubs so I can build my new wheels:

Are you going to build them yourself or have them built?

[Jand3rson]

I'm going to have it done, I have no idea how to do it, or have a truing stand.

Whole thing... I could go through the hassle of taking it apart, but then I am left with a bike I dont need...

[DrMcDave]

that belt drive is cool. I know trek i offering a bike like that now.

The belts has cool factor but I guess I'm not seeing the need. :/
