Will my girlfriend notice the difference between a Nexus IGH (internally geared hub) and a Alfine IGH? She's probably a confident/competent amateur.
I'm building her a daily with an IGH, to upgrade from SS, however the reviews etc all seem to written by someone with no idea or touring cyclists who ride heavy shit.
I'm tempted to go down the nexus route, however is the difference in performance worth the huge jump in price?
