I've got the Scott Sub 10, 2011 version bought cheap in the sales - the 2012 version has a belt drive...
- Gates Belt Drive uses a carbon-reinforced belt instead of a chain—this system is exceptionally long lasting, virtually maintenance free and nearly silent
- Belt Drive system doesn't require lubrication, meaning no greasy chain; split dropout and eccentric bottom bracket facilitate easy replacement and tensioning of belt
I was looking at this bike, the Scott Sub 10 2012 belt drive, but none near me. No Scott dealer I found was prepared to order one in .............. which is confidence inspiring not, unless ....I paid in full up front or a non refundable deposit. As if ..............Two Scott dealers in Cambridge said "Non."
Evans wanted £50 from me so I could look at it in their MK shop which is more than a one hour plus drive away for me. As I have previously bought 3 bikes from them I thought they might waive it, but unfortunately this cut no ice, so they can go swivel. Crap customer service.
