For sale: 3 internal gear hub wheels
Thinning the rim closet! These three rear wheels are keen to convert your ride into a “club” bike, ready to ramble over the hills and dales of the English countryside or your USA equivalent:
1)Sturmey Archer alloy shell AW 3-speed laced to a Rigida 40-hole 650b alloy rim: SOLD!
I built this up a couple of years back and tried it out on a frame that was hanging in the basement. Worked fine, but ended up selling off that frame. Sale includes a set of Panaracer Col de la via 650b x 38mm tires with lots of life left. Hub hardware is complete, and I’ll also throw in a Sturmey Archer 3-speed trigger shifter. Price is $75 shipped in the CONUS.
2)Sturmey Archer 1951 alloy shell AM 3-speed medium ratio hub laced to a 27” made-in-Holland alloy rim: SOLD!
I built this up for a 1951 Raleigh Clubman as the original Dunlop rim was kind of square. The AM is a fun hub; the three speeds are fast, faster, and fastest! Hub is complete, including rare two-piece indicator, and I’ll include a trigger shifter. Price is $100 shipped in the CONUS.
3) Replica Bendix 2-speed kickback hub with coaster brake laced to a no-name 700c rim: SOLD!
I bought this Indian-made hub from Soma when it came out last year, and built the wheel up last winter. Unfortunately I can’t get the hub to shift gears, no matter how much I kick back. Perhaps I’m doing something wrong. So this is a new hub, new rim, new spokes, but it’ll take some problem solving to make it work. Price is $50 shipped in the CONUS.
I have lots of other Sturmey Archer drivetrain bits if there’s a need. Let me know.

Now, if you had a 650B front I’d give thought to throwing them on the Ted Williams instead of going derailleur…

This rear wheel would be fun for a "club" bike build.

Just sayin if you want a bombproof set up, 3 speeds are hard to beat.

I hate seeing for sale threads like this. I keep thinking all I need to do is to find a 650b front wheel and then I can do something really cool with a 120 OLD road frame . . .

Neal, the 1951 AM 27" might be of interest to me. It sounds like perfect gearing for riding here on a pancake-flat coastal island. But let me check to see what I have in spare 27" front wheels prior to committing to a purchase. Is the rim hookless? I'm guessing so and this wouldn't be a deterrent.

For anyone that is on the fence, Neal is a good seller and knows how to ship. I think that over the years, I have bought at least two framesets (PX10 and RB-T) and at least one set of SA wheels from him. If any of these were 4-speed, I don't think I could have resisted.
nlerner , if you find any spare 4-speed indicator chains and/or shifters, please let me know. I might also consider hubs.

The setup I’m thinking about will be for one of my sons. I gave him a Bikes Direct Dawes singlespeed yaers ago to get around the city and he’s decided that having more than one gear could be useful, especially when he crosses the East River to see friends in Brooklyn. He wasn’t thrilled by a 1969 Philips I have so IHG may not be the way despite the benefits.

Oh, what the heck! I have a perfect frame for this wheel and I'm certain I already have or can easily find the other bits needed. PM incoming!

Hmm, let me check on that. I actually did build up a front wheel at the same time to match (not exactly the same rim profile but close), but I'm not quite sure where that is! I'll look around.
