    Chain tensioner and sprocket added. What about crank, can I run a normal single or is there witchcraft involved in the fitting/chainline?

    er, just measure the chainline (mid axle at back to sprocket), and use trial and error with spacers to get the mid-BB to chainring distance the same

    Fitting kit, if it’s not included with the hub. I think it’s usually listed seperately.

    Fitting kit is not usually with the hub.

    To get the hub onto the bike and working you will need –

    Hub
    Fitting kit
    Sprocket (either Alfine or Nexus)
    Shifter (either Alfine or Nexus)
    Chain tensioner
