my digital is shot or i would. I researched sturmey, cause i think they are a sweet hub. They have been making hubs since 1910ish i believe, and in the 20's and onward i have found some very interesting internal gear/cable drum brake innovations which took place on there designs. Sturmey as i far as i know is an english company, as is raleigh, and they had some sort of merger take place in our not so long ago history (60's?), hence the raleigh tires on this "made in england" supercycle frame with sturmey hub. supercycle, although now considered a canadian company, in this case, seems to most definitely have an affiliation with raleigh and sturmey. The bike is from an old couple down the road that cant ride anymore, it is as new, and thats party why i dont want to tear it down, however i cant see them buying anything more than a department store bike. that said, department stores of the 60's should not carry the same stigma of todays **** holes. sturmey as far as i know was bought out by sun race of taiwan in 2000 and will continue to manufacture there internal hubs. anyways...i think im gonna go strip it down; **** supercycle
