  • I think so yes. Not sure though if they have also a dynamo in the front hub. Would be perfect.

    But I’m not sure if I really want one of these. Have it a little bit more thought and I could also do 90% of the transports with a commuter with a front rig. For everything else I still have my van.

    So it’s a fight between building this project ( the owner didn’t even reply to my offer so far) or building myself a nice commuter/gravel bike which is a little bit more practical for everything else.

    I hate to decide those things. :/

  • I bought that dutch rustbucket because my car is dead and the new commuter only has a small front rack, and is to nice to leave somewhere.
    The guy I bought the bakfiets from also had a nicer one. If I spend 5 more minutes cleaning this one up I should have bought the nicer one...

    @psg1ben its for that thing, just looking for a used rearwheel thats not completely rusty and want to know if they are really bad for some reason.

  • Nexus are fine for a cargo bike- my Kr8 has a Nexus 8, which is fine, if slightly draggier than the Alfine (IIRC Nexus premiums have roller clutches like the Alfine so are better).
