Haro extreme with the weird bottom bracket

Some one posted that they found one and someone posted that they would love one to convert to belt drive.
Here is one cheap

Nothing "weird" with that bottom bracket. The frame, on the other hand, is not your traditional double diamond frame. It's an e-stay (elevated chain stay) frame which indeed makes it suitable for a belt drive conversion.

Won't work, you need a horizontal dropout, or an eccentric hub, which will mess with the brake placement on the rim sidewalls.
