Mandatory Kit for the 11Alfine

If you are looking at the 11spd Alfine, you need this kit.

There are some critical instructions that come with this, hang onto them because you will need them. The lock nuts are a little confusing, but with the right guide easy to put together.

You might want to consider a torque wrench for the nuts... because they need some serious torque. And they are heavy nuts.

Pros: Mandatory kit makes it a no-brainer

Cons: It is the only choice... and the steal nuts are heavy. Would be nice if there was a keyed locking nut option (like you would find on a car wheel).
