• I have a colleague with a huge amount of experience with hub gears, he says the alfine 11 is absolutely shite. Stick with the 8 speed of durability is important.

    1x derailleur gears are nicer to ride and lighter.

  • I was thinking that this would still probably be better than using a track dropout derailleur adapter though..

  • IMO the only bikes Alfine/nexus make sense for is neglected town bikes or winter / wet weather commuters.
