An extra belt weighs less than a tube, and probably packs just as small.
boo ya
I was waiting for real statistics... no more arguing about which one is better, they both weigh each other out. So the real debate is about personal preference. Personally I love the idea, chains are hella old school and this belt drive seems like it would feel so good to ride with. But then again I am a starving artist and can only dream of such a thing while lubing and cursing at my clunky chain drive.
