As stated, I'm using the Sturmey-Archer FCS80 crank with its 30T chainring which is meant by the company to be used with the XR*8(W) hub. With the 25T cog, this gives me 31-100 gear inches. Sturmey's official company 8-speed IGH show bike @ Interbike 2009 had an XRD8(W) hub, 700C wheels and their fancier FCSX4 crank.
