Your 3 speed is a good example, OP mentioned fixie and I thought of the Sturmey 3 speed fixie....
Makes sense, I guess I could just take the flat route in winter (if even cycling then).
The 3 speed hub looks good but do I have to buy a wheel with it already installed or can you put them on yourself?
I've only ever had freewheels before so this is a new venture...I ideally want a light bike with not too many components on it...and cheap.
