    6:32 Cube is a german company, based in Bavaria, not too far from the Czech border. A wide spread brand here in Europe.

    Crazy how the algorithm brought me here I’m actually getting the achielle roadster!
    I was on the fence with this model an the vsf 300 2021 with belt drive.
    I chose the achielle cause of the disk brakes they look spectacular in person.
    I’ve ridden both model in the lower spec models very smooth ride.

      @Larry Fitzgerald that's awesome, hope you love it, and hope you post a review!
      (Unreal how precise the algorithm can be. And uncannily enough, I actually have a different VSF product page open in front of me as I write this.)

    Hi there, thanks for the video. I thought of a Priority but believe it or not did not want a BLACK
    bicycle and did not need fenders. Last year got a Spot Bicycles, Acme, partly because it was by a
    company that makes $6k mountain bikes, but also because its' a beautiful blue. Its' a nice bike
    but does have a few glitches. I would love for more Belt Drive companies to make more folding
    options. Please update your video for current offerings!. cheers.

    • @twowheelsbetter_yt

      Nice choice on the Acme - those are beautiful bikes and I've heard great things. Hope it's serving you well!
      Yes, hoping to make an update this summer...

      @@twowheelsbetter_yt Thanks. I will never go back to chain bikes, the belt drive just makes sense to me for multiple reasons. I hope more and more companies build belt drive bicycles.

    Cooper or priority clubs what’s the difference which is faster and if you was too buy which one would you choose and why? I’m stuck between the two and need your help thanks much . Hope u get back with me soon God bless

    • @twowheelsbetter_yt
      @twowheelsbetter_yt  2 роки тому

      For those two, it comes down to whether you want a single-speed (Clubs) or 3-speed (Cooper). Plenty of other differences in the parts list, but gearing is the deciding factor in my opinion.

    the gates website does not list priority or brillant under their brands filter choice which makes me wonder if its really out of date.

    • @twowheelsbetter_yt
      @twowheelsbetter_yt  3 роки тому +1

      @John Lewis yep, unfortunately it is definitely outdated. I hope Gates starts maintaining it, since it's a nice resource otherwise!

    My belt bike makes noises only on low gear. Anyone can help me fix it? It’s not the belt tightness.

    • @twowheelsbetter_yt
      @twowheelsbetter_yt  2 роки тому +1

      Good question. I suspect it's an issue with the internally-geared hub. I'd check the adjustment indicator (if it has one) to make sure cable tension is OK. If that didn't fix it, then I'd take it to a shop.

    It looks to me as Creme bicycles has ceased production.
