Hi! Does anyone think this belt-drive – belt, sprocket and chainwheel, can be retro fitted to an F-frame Moulton, if those parts become available separately? (Perhaps a belt of correct length will be a problem, although the joint in the rear fork is of course not necessary.)
Hi! Dan Farrell says that a belt drive cannot be fitted to a classic F-frame Moulton and would not work anyway. He doesn`t even think it will work on the Bridgestone Moulton, although I see some with belt drive are on sale in the Far East.
Assume the threaded bit in the right “seatstay” is to allow for belt replacement?
If the belt isn’t too lossy (i.e. pedaling effort going into heating up the belt), this drivetrain should be brilliant.
Looks great:

S** the F Frame – wot I want to know is: Can I replace the SA with a Rohloff??
