The Sturmey Archer Duomatic is for those who love the simple concept of few gears and minimal maintenance. With the Sturmey Archer Duomatic, you have two gears to use using a kickback motion where the pedals are pushed back and then shifted to a higher gear. This aluminum colored gear hub is perfect for those who want a neutral and stylish look on their bike. Sturmey Archer's aluminum gear hubs are among the most popular on the market.
With one movement, the gear can shift 40pct higher, allowing you to ride faster on flat roads. If you experience an incline, you can kickback and return to the normal gear you were originally using. Perfect for those who love the fixie concept, but still want an extra gear to complement it.
1 gear: Index 100(Included gear wheel or mount the appropriate number as desired)
2 gears: Index 140 in relation to the first gear
Basically, replacing your original hub with a Sturmey Archer is not super easy. This is because the bike's spokes need to be removed and fitted to the wheel, which requires a bit of experience. A bike mechanic can typically complete the whole process in under an hour, so it's worth strongly considering asking your local bike mechanic to fit the hub for you.
