These are the differences that I've noticed so far :--
Freewheel's better now that it's on the back wheel, less drag, so it goes much further on freeweel.

Tried it up some steepish hills in Nottingham & no Belt jump or BB flex (my 3.2 always jumped the belt as it had no pinch roller on the back pulley)

BB has a snail-cam which adjusts the belt tension by means of a screw under the BB

Disk Brakes are superb

Standard tyres are Kenda 65 psi

Another addition is spring loaded buttons on the handlebars which you push in to locate them into the steering head before you tighten the over-centre catch

And there are ergonomic grips fitted

One free mudflap

And finally it came with free tiny LED lights (the type which you attach with elastic)

I originally posted this in UK forum

Hi Chop!

The Strida 5 Sports Basic Package just launched in Singapore is a bit different:  it will be in Brush Silver with Black Mudguards (and including original Strida carrying bag, nuvo bell, Akslen rear light and Kenda Kwest 100 psi high pressure tyres) all pre-installed.
 
And for the Launch Promotion (for the first 30 units only): (not applicable for trade-ins and other promotional offers).
The Basic Package plus the following items:
-Topeak Large Wedge Pack
-Topeak Dual Action Mini MasterBlaster Pump with Gauge
-Akslen HeadLight

An excellent deal for those planning to get their hands on the Strida 5 Sport.
