Now I know waaaaayyy more about bikes and I kinda wish I hadn't sold it. The hub has some serious merits. I don't think that hub would ever fail. Ever. The ratio range and operation are sweet. If you can deal with the weight of that thing I don't think there is a better hub.

AllenG has a bike with one and he likes it.
thanks. I'll be building a new rear wheel for my 29'er commuter and the Nuvinci will be the main attraction
