    Was cycling by the Thames and got talking to a guy who has one of these, it seems he is planning a cycling trip in Iran.

    Edit, his had a 14 gear sturmly at the rear.

    The rear drop/outs are hub gear friendly so a alfine hub with disc brakes would seem a nice set-up. The frame and fork are £750 and the Xtracycle parts are also pretty pricey, so would run to at least £1.5k for a complete bike. Very good solution for those wanting to carry loads/kids on light trails though (would be useful where I live for example, for avioding high speed limit roads). takes up to 2.5" tyres.
