I realise that I essentially have a choice between hub gears or Singlespeed if I go this route and that's fine.
Because I destroy bikes, not ride them (I do proper maintenance, but I go through chains and spokes like you wouldn't believe) I've been looking for something a little bit more difficult to destroy and came across the two options
I was just wondering if people had any experience with a <£1k bike (My budget... Ideally it'll be a 5 year bike), that had either of the two systems fitted? How do they handle differently to chains and are there any troubles in adding carry racks?
Cheers
