Item Condition

I grade products as honestly as possible and depict blemishes in both description and photos—please study them carefully. I tend to be overcritical and customers report items to be in better shape than expected often. From best condition to worst condition, my grading scale is as follows. Mint / near mint+ / near mint / excellent+ / excellent / great / very good / average / fair.

Description

Quite rare 4 speed Sturmey Archer rear hub from the late 1940's!  This hub was introduced in 1946.  Includes the original shifter, indicator chain, and pin. 

Condition

Great used shape.  Bearings spin buttery smooth backwards.  Forwards (activating the hub) it seems to get stuck every now and then and requires a bit of extra pressure to keep it spinning.  These hubs are not our market, and I cannot diagnose or fix this.  Shell has light cosmetic wear.  Shifter functions well, and looks great.  Indicator chain/pin in nice shape with no rust.
