I have a brand spanking new SRAM Automatix 2-speed I bought a couple months ago that someday I'll be lacing into a wheel for my Schwinn single speed.

If I can just get all these other chores behind me, I'll be going down the path of learning to build a wheel.
It has a coaster brake . For what I paid for the wheelset , and what they’re asking for the hub on Amazon , it’s like I’m getting the wheels for around $25 .
I’m hoping the low gear is lower than the single speed that came on my Electra 1 . I want to be able to spin out around 5-7mph in low . That’ll help me on the hills around here that have been messing up my knees lately.
I’ll be watching for a review of that Automatix 2-speed .
