John Allen:
I thank Tom Ace, http://minortriad.com/ for the gear tooth counts and fractional ratios.
For a description of the workings of this hub, see the excellent animated CAD drawings (“Gears 1=14”) at http://www.rohloff.de/fileadmin/rohloffde/tour_de_hub/start_linux.html

John Allen:
This is the gear ratio after the second stage, the product of its ratio and that of the first stage.

John Allen:
This is the final drive ratio, the product of the ratios of all three stages.

As Excel calculates fractions only up to three places in the denominator, and gives inaccurate answers if it can not find an exact match, these numbers were entered manually as text.
