What you can do easily is to put two dished Sturmey cogs back to back to give you 6 speeds. I'm doing this on my single speed bike conversion (18/24 on an AW gear)
OR you can go look for an early threaded Sturmey driver which has a standard freewheel thread instead of splines and use a freewheel. Good luck with that tho

Hey thanks Richard,
More interesting things for me to learn about, i have read something somewhere along those lines
I realise a lot of this is just me talking to myself really, but i really appreciate the input.
My goal was to get 500 k's out of it as it came and im close to that, a full strip down is close. All the feedback from riding it and from you guys will set the tone for the future. I hope those interested can see what im doing.
One of my favourite things is following other peoples threads of bike adventures, both motor & bicycle.
I have to get more organised with pictures.., great bike forum threads have lots of pictures
