  • I’ve got a Alfine (courtesy of SJS), and changed from a 6speed. I found the Sturmey hub a lot smoother and freer running but for any hub gear you can’t change whilst putting significant pressure on the pedals. You need to back off then change gear, same as you would with a derailleur.

    I change over as I wanted disk brakes so thought why not, but if you don’t need disk brakes then I’d have stayed with my 6 speed.
