Gates Belt Drive System
Virtually Maintenance Free - Long Lasting - Rated for 10,000 Miles - Smooth and Quiet - Greaseless & Clean


Perfect for Mid Drive eBikes
The belt drive system weighs in at about half the weight of a traditional chain. With the Gates Carbon Drive™, you will enjoy a quiet and ultra-smooth riding experience everywhere you go.
Belt Drives are the perfect component to pair with Mid Drive motors and Internally Geared Hubs, such as the Enviolo Automatiq, since there are no external gears to deal with.

Skip the Maintenance
Because the Gates Carbon Drive™ uses a carbon-reinforced belt, it will never stretch. That means less time fixing chain issues in your garage or at the bike shop and more time riding and enjoying your bike.
A belt drive means no more risk of a greasy mess on your pant leg from a chain. The belt and gears require no lubrication whatsoever.
Keeping your new EVELO clean is as easy as ever since you can rinse off your entire drivetrain with water, without having to relubricate anything afterwards.

How does it work?
Enviolo Automatiq combines the benefits of an internally geared CVT located in the rear wheel, with an electronic interface that handles gear selection and shifting - just like an Automatic transmission in your car. This means you're always in the right gear for every hill climb, every time.

Optional Handlebar Controller
If you’re new to biking or haven’t ridden in a long time, the Enviolo® drivetrain eliminates the learning curve of shifting gears correctly.
The optional handlebar mounted controller can be used in conjunction to the phone app. The up and down arrows allow you to adjust your cadence settings while riding.
