    RIP Burnhard Rohloff

    Inventor of the 14 speed internal hub. I run one on my commuter behind a Bafang mid drive. The thing has shifted flawlessly for over 1000km with 1 oil change. Fantastic piece of gear.

    I just ran into a couple yesterday as they were riding their tandem around the world. They said their Rohloff hub performed perfectly for the last 9 months. Cheers to you, Burnhard.

    If I spent $1600 on a hub, before even building it up, I’d expect it to last 1000kms or at least 9 months.
