So I went with an 8 speed Shimano IGH and she likes it. Plus you can shift any time; moving or standing still.
Sounds excellent. I would love one but can be hard to find one in the trash pile, I generally run a 6 speed derailleur in the back...a bit complicated but the wide gear spread and cheap price make it fun...non-indexed systems do make noise if not shifted right. No front gear changing is very nice.
My wife has a 1 speed bike I am really looking to putting a 3 speed hub on...glad others are in my spot as well.
