if you have it, how is it? i've been looking at those seriously in the past few days, because they turned out to be less expensive than i thought they were.
i always turn the barrel adjuster the wrong way. but i realized that when i turn the adjuster forward, then the yellow line on the right-hand side moves forward. so i just try to remember which yellow line moves the same way as the adjuster! i guess you could think "right-hand adjuster, right-hand line" or something like that. er, i think it's the right-hand side. haha. jeez.
I don't have the hub yet, but am putting my order together for PeterWhiteCycles for the hub, two 2.4w front lights (one with a capacitor and one without), a switch, a dynamo taillight, and Nokian studded tires. The tires are my sticking point, I'm not sure if I need them.
The hub is $45 bolt, $55 quick release per Peter's email. The site is great for all things winter (
