Any question answered...

Since we're on turbos, and off dildos, but still a bit on tea -- I hope nobody minds me reposting this:

My wife is thinking about getting a Charge Mixer 11 (I think, possibly 8). It has a Shimano Alfine hub gears, from photos it looks like the cable doesn't enter the hub at the end of the axle as I've seen on Sturmey Archer hubs.

She wants to be able to use the bike on the turbo trainer, would this be a problem with the hub gears, assuming I can mount it properly?

Also, I find it hard to stay on the turbo for much more than 30 minutes, aside from bored I get a little uncomfortable -- I wonder if getting one of those small stands to bring up the front wheel would help?
