Most other Nexus hubs are similar to the ones described. A video of disassembly and reassembly is available here. Installation instructions for this hub.
Anti-rotation washers are specified for both sides, and must be chosen to align the shifter assembly with the cable. See anti-rotation washer chart.
Japan was the prototype for this sequence. Reached stage 2 in the late s, stage 3 in the early s, stage 4 in the mid s, Stage 5 in the late s and stage 6 by the early s. Japanese bicycles have not been imported to the U. The next country in this sequence was Taiwan, which hit stage 3 in the mid-late s and is currently in stage 5.
Singapore is also in the game, for parts but not for complete bikes. Singapore has no important independent bicycle parts manufacturers, but Japanese parent companies, especially Shimano, own extensive production facilities there. Major bicycle producing countries still stuck in stage 1 include India and South Korea.
Whenever India gets ready to move up, it is expected to be a very important player. Major Western European countries hit stage 6 in the late '70s, just as Japan was moving into stage 3. The original internal-gear hubs were English inventions going back to the beginning of the 20th Century. The Sturmey-Archer AW hub became the standard of the industry for the next 60 years or more. The hub was much more complicated internally than the Sturmey-Archer AW. The diameter of the hub was smaller, and so stresses on the internal parts were higher.
The metallurgy of Japanese steel at that time was not up to the standards of British steelmaking, so the parts were weaker. Japanese cyclists were and still are lighter, on average, than Americans. The combination of design and metallurgy of the Shimano hub was probably adequate for the needs of the Japanese market, but when sold in the U.
When a Sturmey-Archer AW hub gives trouble which it rarely does it is usually due to lack of lubrication, and one or two of the gears stop functioning reliably. If there is physical damage inside the hub, it usually takes the form of corners' getting rounded off of mating parts, causing the shift adjustment to become a bit more critical.
When a Sturmey-Archer hub gives problems, it can almost always be repaired , usually without needing any parts replacement. When an older Shimano 3-speed hub fails, it is most often because one of the under-engineered pawls has shattered. The hub may still work after a fashion, so the rider continues to use it until the broken fragments of the pawls have gone on to destroy the gears and other parts, making the hub basically irreparable.
In , in my freshman year at Middlebury College, I was riding up the steep hill in front of the college chapel on my Columbia 3-speed -- which I had purchased new 5 months earlier. Something went "crack! During the Thanksgiving break, I made my first visit to the Bicycle Exchange hallowed be its memory in Cambridge, Massachusetts, returning with a Raleigh-pattern rim and 40 spokes to lace to a Sturmey-Archer AW hub which I had salvaged from a trash pile.
The Columbia's original rim had 36 spokes. The AW hub never gave me any trouble,. The failure of a hub launched my wheelbuilding career. I suppose that could be called a blessing in disguise. Over the years when the hub and its successors were in production, Shimano made a number of revisions to the design in an attempt to make them more reliable. Newer, similar models are the F, FA and G type and the cartridge type, which had a pressed-in right-side ball cup instead of a threaded ball cup.
The cartridge design made it easier to replace the entire internal mechanism at once -- the usual repair. The best information available on these hubs -- including comparative parts lists -- is in Sutherland's Handbook of Coaster Brakes and Internally-Geared Hubs , which is now online on this site.

Shimano only offers a complete internal replacement, so finding the specific cause is merely educational and not really a solution to the problem. If you guys are having prblems there at the first world, where things should work better, than you can imagine what kind of stuff im been since the bikeshop installed it and THEY DID not get me a propper adjustment.
Hyundai Excel 88 Workshop Manual. It was hell to make them fix it for me. And the shimano service here only acept racing or tracking bikes, instead of they shown the nexus 3,7 certificate at their wall. So tired of geting dumb and lost time with bike shop it took 5 chances to them to make literally nothing , so i tried to adjust it by myself, and i realise it was just a cable tension, a very very dummy issue to setup.
I was almost disbelief wih the hub, now im in disbelief with the service and support the bike shops here are dispending on people. And the Hub issue its just one of thousands ive been at bike services here. They almost treat you like shit if you dont have one of those tracking or speed bikes.
