VINTAGE 80`s SACHS ORBIT HYBRID 2spd/6 COGS (13-28) NEW OLD STOCK ALLOY/STEEL REAR 36 HOLE LARGE FLANGE HUB, 127mm OLN. The Sachs Orbit is a unique 1980s/90s hybrid bicycle gear system combining a 2-speed internal planetary gear hub with an external multi-speed cassette (often 5 to 7 speeds) or a drum brake, giving a total of 10 to 14 gears.
Design and Features
- Hybrid Gearing: Pairs internal hub steps with a standard derailleur cassette to expand gear range without a front triple chainring.
- Shifting: The 2-speed internal mechanism uses a simple two-position cable pull that works with standard friction or index front shifters.
- Build Specs: Typically features 36 spoke holes and an installation width around 126mm to 135mm depending on the specific HT or Commander variant.
- Maintenance: Lubricated via internal oil injection by removing the axle spindle, similar to classic vintage internal gear hubs.
