Are you April Fooling by suggesting it might not be an April Fool? That is some meta-level fooling....

5 front rings sounds like a winner though. Combine it with 12x at the rear, one of those 2x freehubs and you've got 120 gears

Three speed Sturmey-Archer rear hub and 11 speed cassette, plus 5 front rings would give you 165 gears.

Do you think a Hammerschmidt would fit on as well to go the full 330?
