Our bikes both have the three speed hubs. Undo gear cable (small part to lose), remove chain tensioner (possible injury as it snaps back, nut and washer to lose), remove wheel nuts, ease those things out of the holes in the frame (usually jammed by road dirt), fix puncture, reverse (maybe another injury from chain tensioner), re-adjust hub gear. How is that easy?

Why is it so difficult? Doesn't seem any different than changing a rear track wheelset tyre? Or is it just the models with the internal hub gear? That does look a bit fiddly but not that bad, unless they're making it look easier in this vid, as these sorts of things tend to do.
