3-speed fixed (bike) hub

Don't worry about it. Most people forget that, too. They also forget
that internally geared hubs for bicycles are (1.) driven by a chain cog,
not the axle which is fixed to the frame, and (2.) have a shifting cable
that comes out of the axle which would quite handily wrap around your
leg. There are three or four big issues working against internally
geared bicycle hubs realistically being used on unicycles. Most people
get pumped up even when they see the multi-geared freewheel versions
which are completely unworkable for unicycles.
