I've been running a shimano 8 speed hub on a setup I got a few months ago. I try and baby the thing, but I know at some point its going to blow up on me. I think that the higher speeds its forced to deal with would be the death of it before engine torque, but I could be wrong. Wouldn't mashing on the pedals put more torque through the drivetrain than a china girl? I know most upgrade car drivetrain parts are rated for torque- but some have horsepower ratings as well.
Isn't the nuvinci rated for 7 horsepower? I wonder if a cvt style would be stronger or weaker than a planetary gears. The engine connected to my hub certainly isn't making 7. Id be happy with 3 lol.
Has anyone been running one of these for a while? Reliability?
Hope my ramblings make sense.
