Heya, I stumbled across the Sturmey Archer 3 speed Hub with 8-9 speed cassette with disc brake mounting code: CS-RK3 Black
product webpage http://www.sturmey-archer.com/en/products/detail/cs-rk3-black
I am thinking of running one on with a Bafang BBS02, for touring on roads with pedal assist (not hot-rodding).
I have read that S.A. 3 speeds are strong, this seems like a variant of those but with a cassette mount for a 8 to 9 speed.
I have run the numbers and it works out to have about the same gear range as a Rohloff IGH but is way cheaper.
Has anyone any experience in running one of these with a BBS02, BBSHD or any other mid drive please?
Were you gentle with it or not, did you break it, was it off road and so on, how long and how much have you used one please?
Thanks in advance for sharing any informed views you have on this.
