I remember Benelux! I had something like the Standard on my second bike build, circa 1971 or 2, a Varsity (stripped and painted) with a new drivetrain consisting of an AW with two oppositely-dished cogs tack welded on the driver and the Benelux, found much to my surprise in a Nairobi shop -- most carried only Indian roadsters -- shimmed out to accommodate the 1/8" chain. It worked fine on the 2 cogs. I junked the 50 t ring and left the 40 and overall the system gave good ratios.
I suppose the Alvit would have worked even better, but I junked it because the chain kept skipping, which I attributed to the Alvit. It was probably just a very worn chain.
