    Hub gears for my bike

    I think if you wanted rear hub ( Nuvinci or Rohloff) and Carbon drive it would be wise to find a bike with both fitted that is capable off accepting your BBS02. The carbon drive requires a split-able frame to accept the belt, and appropriate dropouts.

    Giant Road e+1 Winter Riding

    I'm amazed at how much crud full mudguards catch, well worth fitting over winter.

    NuVinci 360 gearing

    You'd require a different rear sprocket for the Rohloff but other than that should be a simple enough swap. Buying the bike alread built from the ground up with carbon belt system is a good idea as they are very close tolerance on the alignment.

    NuVinci 360 gearing

    I run Gates Carbon Drive and it's excellent, especially running through winter due to low maintenance requirements. The drive is lovely and smooth, really happy with it. Longevity wise I suppose it depends on what you're using the bike for, I expect 6,000 miles or more before requiring a new...

    Riese & Muller Charger NuVinci Electric Bike?

    The Gates Carbon Drive is near maintenance free, smooth and reliable. Part of the reason I chose my current bike was it had the belt drive.

    Getech Reliability

    I'm just coming up to 700 miles on mine, riden through all sorts as it's my works commuter. Never missed a beat, as far as a bike goes it's as low maintenance as it gets imho.

    Alfine hub with BBS02?

    Rohloff should be very reliable for you. I went Nuvinci just to try it out really, thought the design was interesing.

    I bought the A2 controller as part of the kit, excellent and really useful having the keyboard when searching. Don't really use the airmouse feature much though.

    Yeh all the Minix kit seems to be highly regarded and they co-write Kodi versions specifically to make the most of their hardware. I looked into the nvidia Shield and to be honest for what I use the streaming box for it was no better than the Neo U1. Some people were very disappointed with it...

    Tonsheng TSDZ2

    If it does go belly up you're covered by PayPal, I looked and it was in stock so ordered online and had no problems. They don't like answering emails as you say though..

    Alfine hub with BBS02?

    Has your chain ever slipped on the rear sprocket using that setup?, mines the same as yours but seems like not enough chain engagement.

    Tonsheng TSDZ2

    I bought my TSDZ2 and battery from them, haven't needed any warranty or tech info since though. Was delivered within the week iirc, well packaged and came with checklists for the motor and battery so they haven't just drop-shipped it. Haven't had enough time on the TSDZ2 but it looked a...

    My Minix boots straight into Kodi when powered up (used a free boot schedule app from Google Play to do it). I have it LAN wired to the router. Just loaded some Audio addons onto Kodi and listening to some 90's streams at the moment (happy memories!). The Minix Neo is hands down one of the...

    Minix Neo U1 with Exodus, not the cheapest box by any means but you get what you pay for!. Virgin Media cannot be beaten imho for speed and reliability of service. Put them together and perfect streaming, even when the kids are both hammering youtube on their tables.

    Nick here from Gtech

    It's a shame you can't do a deal with a few bike shops around the country to have a demonstrator and allow them to become resellers (some customers don't like distance selling). They could handle the order for the customer from yourselves. Obviously you would have to make that viable and it may...
