Well it was for my Litespeed Sabre - but i just discovered the frame has cracked (under my awesome power i guess !) so it is new frame time as well. Shifting - i could get an original 2 speed Sturmey quadrant shifter - but i was going to interface it with a modern shifter - but which type will now depend on the new frame. The hub in effect defaults to 1:1 fixed drive with no tension on the cable and when the cable is pulled enough, the shaft engages the planetary system for a 25% reduction - so as long as enough cable is pulled , i think i can get away with a variety of shifters.
Utterly ridiculous, I love shit like that. What bike is it for? How will you shift?
