It's been a hard first two Months on the UA family, but I'm hoping to use it much less once I've moved house and settled in new job, so spending 500 ish on Shimano hub etc makes sense. Hoping to only be doing about 20 miles a week. Have been doing more like 50, and with some very heavy loads.
the broken Nuvinci is second hand, out of warranty, by all accounts online inferior to shimano, and has the most annoying shifting of any bike I've ridden :)
I never felt it was really up to the steep hills, heavy loads and smashy commute riding I was subjecting it to.
