Just found this group. Curious about any opinions on belt drive bikes. I'm looking at Priority but

open to suggestion. Not E-bikes at this point. Thank you.

They do seem to have good reviews. Not the cheapest but not breaking the bank either. dameatball Jul 2022 #7

But it’s a referral (with hefty discount).

Edited to add that that’s how I first heard of Priority brand bikes.

when I reread my post and it sounds snarky. I’m not a snarky person, though I don’t mind a good snark here and there.

I love it. I haven’t put a ton of miles on it yet but so far I’m really happy with it.

I had it in to the bike shop last season when I had a flat tire, and one of the guys there had just bought Priority bikes (not ebikes) for his family. And they don’t even sell them through that shop. He was just impressed with their quality.
