    Gee, what a hard question to figure out from historical sources, guess we'll never know what they were thinking...

    Is it possible to fix Alfine hub gears?

    Normally when gears wear out you just replace them, but hub gears (like Shimano Alfine) this means rebuilding the entire wheel.

    Any recommendations for getting them working better without a lot of cost & expertise?
