Watched that video several times . Setting up the Nexus 3 speed I have as they do in the video doesn’t work . It won’t shift .
by trying different positions I was able to get it to work for about 10 minutes and then it quit shifting .
I’d read some Nexus three speeds were sent out with the wrong shift pin . I ordered a replacement pin with the hope that mine had the wrong pin . Nope , when I got the new pin , it was the same length as the one that came with mine .
A three speed conversion would be the easiest and least expensive way to go if I can get it to work .
I bought a two speed kickback wheelset , but riding with a kickback hub takes some getting use to and the gearing seemed too far apart .
