CV Hub on Vado

[mikeschn]

I was in the store yesterday, and I saw some interesting hubs and Gates belt drives on the new Vado's... CV Hubs... anyone here have one of these?

Vado IGH. Yes, there are several users in the Forums already.

I have a Vado 3.0 IGH with almost 1,000 miles on it now. I wouldn't call it a "CV" like I do for my car's "CV". The Vado is more "IGH" and does require that you "back off" a little when changing to a higher gear, I look forward to a future version where that isn't true. But the belt and lack of any external gears is wonderful, I haven't washed or cleaned the drivetrain since I bought the bike, and I commute on dirt roads twice a day.
