I installed a Rohloff Speedhub 14 IGH on my Luna Z1 mid drive Bafang Ultra Mag back in April 2023.
Here is my installation thread:

  • Ridden it 4,000 miles, 70% off-road, aggressively.
  • I removed my throttle, and I ride torque sensing only.
  • I have had zero problems with the hub.
  • It performs beyond my wildest expectations.
  • Shifts perfectly every time.
  • I've never had to adjust the shifting mechanism.
  • Shifts faster and more reliably than a cog system.
  • Minimal maintenance:
    • I've chaged the oil three times
    • Replaced the chain once.
I could never go back to the old cog system.
