Gates Belt to 1x12
I am putting together a multi seater for long distance(cross country) family adventure. I am like the low maintenance of the Gates belt as we will be riding everyday and having a LOT of chain management is not my idea of fun. I want to keep it on the right side so I can get specific crank are sizes for the kids 140,150,160. Current offering for left drive is normally 170or 165 and then use shortener's ( I don't like them) I think i can make it happen but will have to use different length BB spindles, I am going with square taper so getting different lengths is not a problem. I just have never seen it done before. I also have not seen folks run 1x12 any thoughts on using it for a multi seater? we are a lighter team 2 smaller adults and kids 12,10,8 so we are not going to develop huge force but it will be more than a 2 person team. Love to hear thoughts and ideas
