How do you determine what the gear ratios are once you have the belt drive?
I don't understand which size sprockets to pick or which size belt or gear hub.
What is the relationship of the belt length to the rest of the setup?
The belts are available in many sizes and so are the front and back sprockets.
I want to have some very low gear ratios (1:3) and some very high (5:1). I am looking at the Montague Allston because I want a full size foldable bike with a carbon belt drive. I have only ever used chains. I would actually like to buy a different frame from the Montague and put a belt drive on there and buy the rest of the other pieces directly from Gates but I don't know what I'm doing.
I also want to add a suspension fork and some different handlebars and some twist shifters. I don't know if I can do any of this.
