Alright, so about rohloffs an that....
They have a CC which is for quick release and a TS for threaded spindles. I'm pretty sure I want the TS for the horizontal dropouts... Or do I make them more versatile by having the CC which takes a QR spindle which presumably still works?
Also, what's the go with internal and external gear box? I read that the EX is for disc brakes which I dont intend to have, but that they make wheel removal easier?
Again, do I just get the external box for versatility?
This is all going on a crosscheck which one day might be swapped over for a Surly Troll or Ogre or something... So maybe discs are on the horizon.... But then should i buy the disc version of the hub now? It wont know im using v-brakes, right? Understand the wheel will need to be rebuilt to do this.
