Custom Bendix hub 2-speed fixie wheel (700c) with shifter
 

Custom built Bendix 2-speed coaster hub from the 50s/60s (36h, coaster brake removed, professionally welded) that is a bonafide 2-speed fixie hub, operated by thumb shifter. I laced it to a700c Alex DM18 rim, and had installed on my Rivendell SimpleOne... While not a lightweight hub, these old Bendix hubs were built to last, and the extra gear helps with hills. It has been a total blast to ride, but I am selling the Rivendell with its original setup and I have no bike for this wheel. $100; prefer pickup but will ship in US (buyer pays shipping, should cost around $30)

That’s cool.
What are the gears?
something like 75% and 100%
I assume it takes coaster brake cogs ?

As I recall, something close to that, maybe even less (like 70%) for "climbing"... Sorry I never took the time to measure the difference, but the 100% for cruising was perfect, and the lower gear gave me courage to at least attempt certain hills.

And yes, this is technically a coaster hub (modified), so I gather it would take coaster cogs. I can get you a closeup photo if you like.

Fun wheel, really enjoyed it on my Rivendell SimpleOne for a bit. Bendix made some strong hubs.
