• Personally I find the only hub gear that is truly fit for purpose beyond commuting and leisure use is Rohloff, they’re just another level.

  • What was that Ryan Duzer guy using on his TD route ride? I think he had crankset gearbox thing built into his bike not hub gears. All the tourers seem to rate Rohloff although I think maybe Mark Beaumount broke one quite early in his first around the world trip? Maybe someone else. My cycling anecdotes are pretty mashed.

    I think it was the wheel build which was at fault there, something wrong with the tension and spokes were breaking.
