Ashford Polycord Turbo Kit
Price per kit. Canadian shipping only
A cool little conversion kit for single-drive wheels with cotton drive bands, converting them to a polycord belt with much less slippage. Works for a nearly any wheel out there. This comes with 2m (78") of 2mm clear fusable polycord, a special wooden guide block to hold the cord while it is being fused (with a flame) and instructions. Customers that have made the switch have told us this kit is real dandy.
