WHY WILL BELT DRIVES BENEFIT RIDERS AND CLUB OWNERS?

Bike drivetrain systems transmit the power from pedaling to the wheels. Most bikes use a chain to help propel the bicycle forward. A “chainless” bicycle transmits power to the wheels through a mechanism other than a metal chain. In most cases, this is via a belt. The Poly-V belt is quieter, stretches less, and transfers more power than other belts. Belts are becoming the norm in Indoor Cycling. They require less maintenance, have fewer breakdowns, improve pedaling technique, permit less momentum-based recovery, make the rider work more efficiently, and are safer for new riders. They save the club owner money, decrease liability, make less noise, and train participants more effectively.
