Thanks to its cleanliness and longevity, Gates Carbon Drive makes cycling easier and more appealing. “Gates hopes to eliminate some of the barriers to cycling by helping to create low-maintenance bikes that people can just jump on and ride, with no pre-ride lube or work required,” says Frank Scurlock, global business development director for Gates Carbon Drive Systems.

“Belt drives offer distinct advantages for time-stressed people,” says Todd Sellden, global director of Gates Carbon Drive Systems. “We believe that Carbon Drive is a technology that can get more people riding bikes for health, fitness, and environmental benefits.”

  • Gates Carbon Drive

    I have been riding a Gates Carbon Drive on a 2010 Norco Ceres bike for about 2 years now. I have to agree with Frank, that the attraction of a low maintenance commuter bike was hard to resist and helped get me back on the bike to commute to work. The system is clean, silent and maintenance free. For some reason, here in the UK, hub geared bikes are not popular. Most prefer derailleur gears, even though these need adjusting if they get knocked. I wouldn't go back to a derailleur now. The carbon drive and hub gearing is a great combination.
