Shimano 3 Speed

I wanted to put a Shimano 3 speed on my old bike. My first choice was the version with the shifter cable attaching to the hub inside the frame dropout.


I cannot find this version although I believe that it exists.


Next I looked for a Sram 3 speed only to find that they recently ended production.


Then I figure I will get a Nexus with the rod shifter even though it hangs out of the side of the drop out and I cannot find it with 36 spokes. I can find them in a coaster brake version, but that is not what I want. I have rim brakes.


Am I not looking hard enough or in the right places?
