Besides..a Nexus hub has a width of 130mm..the 3 speed hubs are only 110mm...but again..all down to shortsighted management..Once Britain made wonderful motorbikes...exported all over the world...but didn't invest in new product development ..and they had the same type of management as Brompton have..today..blind..!
