Upgrading from Nexus 7 to Nexus 8?
Hello,
Out of curiosity, how easy is it to upgrade a bike from a Shimano Nexus 7 to a Nexus 8?
Can it be done by just pulling out and replacing the core assembly, or does it require building a whole wheel with the new hub?
Thank you.

EDIT sorry... lost the chart. Stand by.
This was on the "Wayback Machine"...

O.L.D. for some Shimano Internally Geared hubs.
