Have worked on my bike since last message and discovered the source of the noise. There is a crown nut which tightens on the rear sprocket which had loosened causing the sprocket to drift, after tightening it NO MORE NOISE! By the way, I took the chainguard off mine with no ploblems.

My District is great in dry weather, but the belt/sprocket interface squeeks in the wet. The price of Districts has gone up £150 to £750 since i bought mine. If anyone wants to buy one, Bike Zone in Oxford still have one in stock. They also have one of the 7 speed Soho belt drives (Not at all nice if you ask me!)

Dan, I’ve removed mine and have since done about 200 miles without any problems.

The drive guard is necessary for stabilizing the tracking of the belt and should not be removed.It does not function like a typical chain guard. It is
a necessity.

I’m dying to get a Brooks saddle to throw on mine, it will look awesome with the other leather accents

Hey Terry! Black rims can definitely be added aftermarket. it’s a standard wheel size. Velocity has got some great options. The shop should definitely be able to help you out!

My District came in yesterday, and I added A pair of mks toe clips, SOMA Brown Leather toe straps,which match perfectly with the saddle amd handle bar grips. I also Bought a SOMA hemp top tube pad, in orange,It isnt as bright as the orange on the bike,and it is a very snug fit across the front. I’m going to look in to a bici concept top tube pad, maybe something in orange or brown..

I just got mine today! Looks great, very light, and really quiet. I also had the handle bar replaced with a chopped straight one. I’ve been riding it all day, truly a great ride, even on the strets of Brooklyn!
