@James Alexander: The Super Course is actually brown... but thanks, it will remain that color. I'm probably going to build up some sort of singlespeed wheel... I hadn't considered the possibility of doing a double sided free... who knows?
Thankfully I'm near a shop that regularly deals in Sturmey Archers, regardless of whether I build a new wheel (just found my truing stand after several years) I reckon I should fix the S5 anyway (and who knows, with it working properly perhaps I'll come to like the high-low range option enough to offset the weight issue).
