Peter,

How did the Sanshin hub affect chainline? That would be really cool for track workouts. I've never seen one.

FWIW, gearing for the Elite (Nat'l level) track races generally ranges from about 90 to 96 depending on the event and the rider. I generally ride a 48x14 for most mass start races, I'll go a little bigger for pursuit, a little smaller for madison.

Gearing is really a function of the track, the wind conditions, and who's there...

Mark,

The Sanshin Pro Trainer hub is very cool. I manage to get not two but three 3/32 cogs on mine for the hills of Western Carolina.

Does any one know if these hubs can still be found? Mine was acquired in Japan years ago...
