Once you get the rings on, and the chainline set it's not a big deal to get the belt on.
You can't just roll it on however. (Gates warns you that will damage the belt.) So each time you reinstalled it, you would need to loosen and tighten the eccentric. Doing it that way is maybe a 5 minute job.
Unlesss the frame breaks apart in a way that allows you to shorten the distance between the 2 timing rings, pop the chain on, and then lenghten the distance between the 2 rings.
