i've seen lots of belt drive on a city/urban bike with internal gears... this is actually my first time seeing it on a track bike.. how does it feels?

really really smooth. I loved it so much I refused to go back to a regular chain when looking for a replacement for my last bike

i've always put my eyes on a drive belt equipped bike on my lbs.. looks sexy.. but the only thing that comes on my mind "will it last long?".. do you skid to stop?

Yes, the belt is supposed to last substantially longer than a traditional chain without any rust or oiling. I do some of the time, and I haven't had any problems with it at all

damn! glad to see that it's actually something worth buying.. if it's that durable and needs less maintenance, i think i'll be saving money for my work horse.. thanks for the insights

Nice bike. I have two belt drive bikes (sscx, ssmtb) and would LOVE to try this on my track bike / fixed. I imagine it feels wonderfully smooth without any chain slack from forward to back pressure. Any hiccups skidding? What tension do you run?

No hiccups at all! I just had it transferred from my old bike, so I haven't laid any hands on it, local bike shop did their business widdit
