7/8/9 ideal for chain life and that level of torque going through drivetrain. Alfine 8 the best but quite a faff to swap to it; new wheel, new dropouts etc.
Defo install the gear indicator. On my Bullitt with Bafang I had Alfine and didnt install it as I never shifted while pedalling. @cake has it on his Omnium.

What are the thoughts on gearing with bafang? I currently have a Bullitt with 12 speed SLX, but about to install BafangHD, thinking that it might be better to swap out the rear mech and cassette to a 7/8/9 speed. Anyone had experience with this?
