Anyone built up a bike using a modern 8 speed geared hub? I have been thinking about this for a while.
The clean lines and smoothness of a SS but with 8 gears would be ideal.
The spacing on my frame is for a 120mm hub but the geared hubs are 135mm. Would this squeeze into my frame with some persuasion?
Any other problems i could encounter?
