Quest V2 upgrade

[David Harvey]

Quest V2 with 20 “ wheels.
Hi all am new to Cruzbikes.
I want upgrade the existing 20 “ wheels to 26”. Intend to keep the sram
As is for future trips for fold ability etc.
I need advice on a cheaper, lighter gearing setup for the 26” setup. At least 13 gears on hub. Cheers David

A Rohloff hub will give you 14 gears: very reliable, but not cheaper or lighter.
1 x 11 or 12 setup works well.

I put a 1x12 (10-50) on my T50 and it has been great.

In the middle of the back wheel of my Grasshopper is a boulder made of a mixture of polluted mud, acid rain, grit, dog poo, horse poo and I know not what. Inside there is a Rohloff, refusing to die. That is 14 gears for 15 years of abuse. So the cost per year is not that high.
