A. Internal gears have a system whereby the gear shifting mechanism is built into the hub of the rear wheel. The most widely known form of internal gearing is the three-speed utility bicycle. However 3-, 5- and 7 speed hubs are available on the market. Shimano Nexus, SRAM and Sturmey Archer are widely regarded as the best in the industry. Velorbis use all of these top quality brands on our bicycles.
