An internal hub transmission for a bicycle comprises a hub shaft
structured to be mounted to a bicycle frame, a drive member, a driven
member, and a planetary gear mechanism that communicates rotational force
from the drive member to the driven member. A first bearing assembly
comprises a separate first bearing cone mounted to the hub shaft, a first
bearing cup, and a plurality of first bearing members disposed between
the first bearing cone and the first bearing cup. A second bearing
assembly comprises a separate second bearing cone mounted to the hub
shaft axially spaced apart from the first bearing cone, a second bearing
cup, and a plurality of second bearing members disposed between the
second bearing cone and the second bearing cup. Third and fourth bearing
assemblies rotatably support the drive member relative to the hub shaft.
