53 gears?

You can put a derailer gears on a Sturmley/Archer internal gear hub. I
think there are a few manufactured that way. 3 * 10 * 7 = 210 gears.

Hmm. Where are you getting that last factor of 7? A 7-ring crank?

I believe someone now makes a 14 speed internal hub, so you got your
3, your 10, and your 14.

420 gear combinations, although I'm sure that there is some overlap;-)

Bent riders are proud of being bent :-)

Take a Sram dual drive 9*3=3D27 add a triple front 27*3=3D81 now add a mi=
