Converting to internal gear hub
I have a Kona Dew FS which I use to commute 18 miles a day.
My commute is pretty flat and half the ride is on C & O canal and I am constantly cleaning the drive train.
I was thinking of converting to a Shimano Alfine system.
I can do this for about $350 buying parts through ChainReaction cycles.
I know I can buy a Kona Dr. Fine for about 3X but I would like comments on this subject and also those who have dealt with ChainReaction cycles
Thanks
The wheel
