Re: Help buying a Bike
They're more aimed at the townies that want to bike. I'm sure that shimano has done their research and the transmissions are solid. This is not a new concept; internally geared hubs have been around a long time and companies have been playing around with automatic shifting for years. For the low amintenance crowd, I think it's ideal...all you should have to worry about is lubing the chain.
It's not the way I would go, but I think it's a good idea.
