I'm skeptical of that explanation.

The Sturmey Archer S2C kickback I had was 1:1 in the low gear, and 1:1.38 in the high gear. The 138% range was very noticeable.

The Eagle yellow band hubs have 1: .67 hub low gear, while high gear is 1:1. So that's a 133% range. I think you would feel that -- otherwise, what's the point?
