Sturmey archer 3 speed. This question can probably be answered by [MENTION=266503]JaccoW [/MENTION] who seems to spend his entire waking hours lacing drum brake Sturmey hubs into Gazelles and Koga-Miyatas, but I thought I'd ask the entire Mechanics forum: What tool do you use to hold down the two-tab adjustable left-hand cone nut (#29 HSA371 "Cone Adjuster") on the modern Sturmey drum hubs? The tabs are a lot less . This is my first time working on the innards of an internal gear hub and I am hoping to collect any advice and cautions My bicycle is an early 80's Raleigh Bomber with Sturmey Archer AW hub which is great but I fancy putting in a 3-speed Dynohub. I have one in a 26 x 1 3/8 rim and want to move it into my 26 x 2. I have the problem with my 3 speed Sturmey Archer hub on my Raleigh Chiltern bike where when I start to pedal the cranks always spin a little until the freewheel engages. Two recent completed auctions went for $430 and $433, plus shipping. All times are GMT -6. Does someone know how I can fix this problem? Left is a ladies' Raleigh DL-1 Tourist rod brake bike. Right is a Raleigh Sports, guessing from the decals it's around 1959-1960. If possible, I would like to stick with a 3 speed IGH coaster brake unit and it would be great if I could re-use the SRAM twist shifter so I don't have to remove/destroy the expensive Rivendell cork grips I'm using. Would sell for $400-500 if it's all there and in alright condition. Would it be sensible (or even possible) to build a 700c or 27" wheel around it? I've trued a few wheels but I've never built one from scratch. Worth at least a couple hundred if it's in decent shape. The time now is 06:21 PM. Does anyone know if a Sturmey Archer unit is compatible with the SRAM 3 Speed Twist Shifter? According to the Sturmey Archer literature, the left lever is used to select between the "super" gears and the three middle choices. There's one listed on ebay right now for $1000, but I doubt it will sell. I've got a 1969 Sturmey-Archer AW 3-speed 36 hole hub in good working condition (and free!). Jun 16, 2015 ยท Bicycle Mechanics - Disassembly of Sturmey-Archer X-RD5 - advice and warnings please! - I've finally set aside some time to disassemble my Sturmey-Archer X-RD5 (5-speed rear hub with drum brake). The lever is pitched forward for "Super Low" and "Super High" and backward for the three middle gears. I'm guessing that after buying a good truing stand and the related tools it would probably just be cheaper to have somebody build it for me? spider-man 04-23-06 All times are GMT -6. First thing that's apparent is that my rim is smaller than the donor wheel's rim so I'll need different spokes. 125 rim.
