I do carry a spare on tours
But I would still avoid going with a belt on a tour anywhere that’s remote - not because the belt itself might break, but the hub (as for this guy), or a sprocket or anything that is uncommon, but required when riding a belt.
Chain can go few k already so just getting it replaced at start of big trip is enough
As far as I know, that's the only mountain bike sold with a pinion + belt drive stock.

Thanks for the link, I'd never heard of these folks. Love seeing innovation like this in bicycles.
