S3X Builds - What are you planning?
 
I know I want the hub, but haven't decided on frame, wheels, etc. yet.

SO....for those you you planning on buying the hub, do you know what the rest of your 3 speed fixed gear will look like?

i am going to wait until the iro phoenix comes out before i decide.

Forgot about the IRO Phoenix, that could be a good one.

I am concerned about hub bearing race/cone quality. I'd probably keep the three speed on my carlton frame.

This hub has townie written all over it...

i'm planning to start yet another thread discussing it. 19 isn't quite enough...

Srsly, I scrounged an old [and very heavy, steel] high flange Shimano hub and I plan to use it to build my first wheel so when/if the S3X becomes available I'll have some wheel building experience to draw from when building it up. Yay for self-betterment.

I'm going to try to order one of these hubs from Sturmey later this week if i can get it, it's going on my KHS flite laced to either an open sport or MA3

I'm tossing a S3X onto the 3rensho conversion if that damn hub ever comes out.

Custom Pergoretti when I get it in a few years.
