You certainly COULD set up this bike with an IGH, but it appears to have all the usual provisions for a rear derailleur (DT shifter boss, chainstay cable mount).
IMO, people buy IGHs for all the wrong reasons - i.e. the mythical "no-maintenance drivetrain" that tends to appeal to non-mechanical persons. The truth is closer to the drivetrain not being low-maintenance, as much as it's generally unmaintainable, since small parts are generally nonexistent for all but a few hub models. Also, they tend to complicate routine fixes, like flat tires. Grant doesn't seem to like unmaintainable stuff. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
