Post pics of your internally geared bikes!
I thought it would be good if there was a thread dedicated to people's internally geared bikes. Please share pics and info of yours!
Heres mine: Surly 1x1 with Nexus 8 speed hub and Alfine rapid fire shifter. http://img107.imageshack.us/img107/6986/img3619lm1.jpg http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/7191/img1x1cak3.jpg http://img177.imageshack.us/img177/576/img1x1dcy5.jpg http://img177.imageshack.us/img177/5032/img1x1bih1.jpg |
Which one ;):p
Here are my two and I have 2 more under construction... Aaron:) 1971/72 Raleigh Sports Standard (no hub date) Daily rider/commuter from 1982-1992 Currently used as a lifeboat/dinghy in my work truck, it goes everywhere with me. http://inlinethumb21.webshots.com/35...600x600Q85.jpg 1972 Superbe occasional commuter http://inlinethumb30.webshots.com/28...600x600Q85.jpg |

Here is my tank. It is a 56 Schwinn Wasp that I put a 7 speed nexus with ligther weight wheels. It is overkill for New Orleans which is flat but with bad roads. I have changed out the lock to U-bolt since this photo. |

Kettler Silverstar, modified with hub generator. Ridden every day, sometimes with a trailer or Trail-A-Bike to transport groceries or child. Drum brakes fore and aft, Nexus-7, B&M LED standlight replaces original taillight. Paul |

Well, it hasn't served any time as a commuter yet, at least not for me, and I've only ridden a few feet since I picked it up yesterday, but hopefully it'll be running smoothly by next weekend, and might make my short commute some days if I have reason to leave my regular commuter behind:
http://www.loominess.name/media/IMG_1087.jpg It's Sears Tote Cycle with a Sturmey-Archer 3 speed hub (1972). Not exactly a folder, but the frame splits and, using a couple of extra attachments, the two halves reattach side-by-side. Should be ridable with new tubes and some oil in the hub. And hopefully it'll clean up nice when I try and get the rust off and polish up the chrome. Here's the hub: http://www.loominess.name/media/IMG_1091.jpg |
By next weekend I should have my dyno wheel and Marathon pluses from Peter White installed and I'll update the pic. In the near future I'm going to add a front disc brake and probably a front basket/rack. I'm going to try the Albatross bar soon, but I'm not sure it will stay on this bike

I love the raleighs... I always wanted an upright classic like one of those. |
[QUOTE=JoebikerLa;6221502]Donkey Hodie, we have the same bike!
Nice. The surly 1x1 makes a nice frame for the nexus hub. |

I was thinking something like a cetmarack might be a cool option: http://www.cetmaracks.com/ |

Don't mind the dork. He frightens easily and if you even act like you are going for the garden hose, he runs out of the yard. I may be stripping the frame in the near future though. |
I loves me my 3 speeds and for some of the best three speed porn on earth is in the C&V forum under the title "Bring Back the English 3 Speed".

It's a two speed. Low is direct drive, high is 1.5 overdrive. |
My project bike. Nexus 7 w/roller,Avid BB7,Sun Ryno Lites w/yellow S-Licks.
http://farm1.static.flickr.com/47/14...2a926ea0_o.jpg The polo bike. Still need to disc up the front wheel. http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1232/...cfadcd2f_o.jpg |
My Surly 1x1 in its Nexus disguise. During the winter it reverts back to a fixed gear slush-puppy.

What covering are you using on the Hubbub shifter, did you cover it with something?
Looks nice. |
