Steamroller with IHG
Has anyone set up a Surly Steamroller with a 3 or 8 speed IHG ?
If so- issues, challenges, successes doing so ?
Thanks in advance for your feedback,
martianone.

The Steamroller has 120mm dropouts so need to be spread to fit most hubs which are 132 to 135mm. The SRAM P5 and T3 are about 120mm as are some versions of most Sturmey Archer hubs and some versions of the Shimano 3 speed.
SRAM 7 and 9 speeds as well as the iM3 are 130mm to 135mm. Shimano Nexus and Alfine 8 speeds are in the 132mm to 135mm width range as is the Shimano 7 speed IIRC. The Rohloff is also 135mm.
