Has anyone used these?
I'm thinking if I'm blowing £65 on chain & cassette every 3 mnths this may be the way to go.

They are well proven on heavily loaded touring bikes over many miles , no idea how well they work ie changing gear under load etc . I’ve ridden a hybrid ebike with a 2 speed hub , that basically replaced the 2x front and that worked very well .

Would like to try the rohloff , I used to get on fine changing gear with a sturmy archer 3 speed whin I was a kid ?. Belt drive clearly isn’t going to work off road , but I can see the attraction of it
