    Soma Wolverine 4.0B Gates Carbon using Rohloff SpeedHub

    It's been a while....haven't felt the need to build another bike after the Titanium/Rohloff/BBS02. Need a project, so why not a Gates Carbon driven Rolhoff combination? Pictures to follow, the bike is about half assembled.

    Luna Sale BBS02 and Panasonic Battery Combo

    I'm not here to pump Luna but this is a great price $750 for the combination. If you upgrade to 13AH 52V battery the total is $825 for the combo. Ordered separately the price is $965. Saving $140 sounds pretty good. Court J.

    IGH

    I've been riding the Rohloff Speedhub for about one month on the Titanium Fantom and have just shy of 600 miles on it. I'm impressed.......I don't think I'd ever go back to a standard derailleur. I also converted my older 48V 750W bike to the Rohloff so both 750W bikes have the Speedhub...

    NuVinci N360

    Anyone who wants to try the N360 can buy it on ebay.....free delivery for $199.50. I just bought 3. I plan on building a rear wheel for my original BBS02 36V 500W motor. Even though the N360 is rated to 250W and I'll be using it on a 500W motor, I believe there's a work around if you have the...
