  • Since moving to Bristol my Pomp's gear ratio - already low at 44/18 - feels hard work up the hills. So I've ordered a Sturmey Archer SRF3 3 speed hub to be built up by SJS cycles, along with a bar end shifter. This isn't a mistake right, it's gonna work ok? I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing when it comes to hub gears.

  • Should be O.K. 3 speed hubs are a doodle to set up, also remember to stop pedalling before you changed gear (as you would push the clutch in a car).

    You can make sure the 2nd gear have the gearing you want, as that's the direct drive.
