  • I’m thinking of buying a used gsd with a broken enviolo hub. Does anyone have a rough idea of how much it would cost to put a new enviolo wheel in (the gates and everything else is fine)? Or, does anyone know if I could switch it out for a Rohloff wheel (and bits) instead? And roughly how much that would cost (parts wise, I can do the fitting)?

  • you need to talk to either @Vince or @sbbohr for that, I am guessing its a great deal?

  • When you buy a Rohloff hub it comes with all the other bits. I think they retail for about 1.3k or so depending on what arrangement you need. (Also you didn’t specify E14 or mechanical?)

    If your bike fits enviolo it should have all the necessary routing for the Rohloff… Read the manual as it’ll tell you what you need to know for fitting.

    Don’t know how much an enviolo hub costs. Do you know what’s broken about it out of interest?

    Add onto whatever option all the wheel building bits you need and whether you’ll assemble the wheel yourself or pay for labour

  • Thanks @amey

    I was actually speaking with Enviolo this week.

    They are releasing cargo bike specific hubs at the end of September - capable of holding 100Nm of e-torque + 300kg of cargo weight - BEASTLY!

    In the meantime, they have an Enviolo HD (heavy duty) priced at 220€. Fitting kit & bits come to about 80€.

    @urbs
    Nuvinci & Enviolo are intercompatible so why don't you pick a cheap & cheerful Nuvinci hub or complete wheel on eBay?

  • Rob at Really Useful Bikes in Yate services Enviolo and he’s a top guy
