Bike Knack is an authorised Australian distributor of Gates Carbon Drive bicycle parts, located in Salisbury, Queensland. Opening hours are Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. The workshop is available by appointment for servicing of Gates Carbon Drive drivetrains or belt-drive conversion of suitable bicycle frames via installation of a custom splitter.
Gates Carbon Drive is a belt-based drive system that does not rust or need lubrication, unlike traditional bicycle chains. The high-performance belt system is suitable for road, commuter and mountain bikes. The belts are based on carbon fiber in a urethane body. In contrast to chains, carbon fiber will not stretch, and the working life is two to three times longer than that of a chain system. Further, the 11-mm pitch profile gives optimal performance matched to human power. Paired with Gates Carbon Drive sprockets, the belt-drive system provides smooth, quiet meshing and durability. Gates belt drive provides an attractive alternative not only for commuters but bikepacking enthusiasts and mountain bikers who don’t want to deal with grease or risk broken chains.
Gates Carbon Drive parts are available through the online Shop. To arrange a service, email Dave or call on 0437 017022.
