Fixed geared bike to a internal hub geared conversion, help and advice needed
 

I have a specialised langster fixed gear bike 120mm rear axle spacing.

I would like to change this to an internal geared hub.

I was looking at the Sturmey Archer 8 speed

X-RF8(W)

Would this hub work for my bike or are there any other options that you would consider.

I would like to do some touring around the UK on this bike.

I can maintain my own bikes no problem, but I am a bit clueless when it comes to internal gears.

What items will I need to get if the sturmey archer option will work. eg cables, shifters. Do I need a grip shifter or can I use a bar end shifter that I have seen advertised below

If you could help me out with these questions I would be most grateful.

Thanks
