nexus 3 spd rear wheel w/ coaster brake 20"

[Da Other]

Curious if that is possible. Building a cruiser for my daughter and wanted to make it a 3 spd. Any suggestions as to any modding needing to be made to the 20" rear wheel?

Thanks

If I am not mistaken the Nexus 3 speeds typically come in 36 hole only. You will have to either find a 36 hole rim or find a 28 hole sturmey archer 3 speed hub.

Seeing as THOUSANDS of aluminum 20" 36H hoops have been produced for BMX'ers, I don't see how sourcing one would be a problem. Just make sure you get the spoke length right.

ya, I thought all BMX 20's were 36H.. :?
