Rohloff chain to belt conversion

Описание: In this video I explain how I converted my bike, a 2016 Kalkhoff Endeavour 14, with a Rohloff hub from chain drive to belt drive. It's not a video about me doing the actual conversion which was complex enough to do in itself without a camera, but a video detailing the things that have to be done and things that I ran into.


I reference some manuals in the video, links to some of the most important instructions are here:
Gates Rohloff manual: https://www.gatescarbondrive.com/~/me...

Rohloff instruction video on removing the (old) sprocket with the dedicated tool (8501). Tip: use a large wrench and a decent chain whip tool. I first tried it with a cheap chain whip which I broke:    • SPEEDHUB Workshop - Sprocket Change  


Note: you might have noticed that the bike has a fixed front fork in the video whereas the Endeavour 14 came from the factory with a Suntour suspension fork. That's correct, I did some more modifications to the bike and replaced it with this rigid fork which excactly matches the black of the bike. It's as if it was always on there: Kinesis CrossWind 455 Disc 28" Trekking/Cross Rigid Fork - 38mm Offset - 1 1/8" Ahead - Disc - QR - https://www.bike24.com/p2330583.html


And for my fellow Dutchies (everybody else forgive me my somewhat Dutch pronunciation of English I was too lazy to do re-takes of my video sections :-D ;-) ) - Hoop dat jullie het ook een beetje goed te volgen vinden. De Gates handleiding en een deel van de documentatie van Rohloff is er ook in het Nederlands. Maar let op, soms is e.e.a. niet al te best vertaald dus check het bij twijfel even met de Engelse/Duitse handleidingen.
