The Komet super is apparently a nice coaster brake, and if it has the drum type brake they are effective and release cleanly. When Sachs stopped making such things a Czech company called Velosteel continued them, and I have about a dozen of theirs on and off my bikes - and I love them. What I do recommend is that you strip it out, clean it up and regrease the bearings and other internal mechanisms - especially the sprocket carrier bearing, as when that goes it can take the rest of the hub with it. They are not complicated, but if left standing for years the grease in there can harden.Preliminary rim cleaning shows some promise.
Has anyone ever used one of these Komet Super hubs?
