Building a low maintaince 26" wheeled hack bike fitted with a 7 speed internal hub geared sachs
spectro 7.

No knowledge of hub geared bikes so need advice as to a reasonable size (No of teeth) for the

Depends on your gearing needs/desires and the wheel size. I have an on-line calculator that will let
