Hi all, my Nexus Hub is playing up again, the cable bracket again rotated after having behaved for quite a number of rides.
So I have a couple of questions, is the crank drive and my standing on the pedals to attempt to climb a 30%+ grade fire trail placing to much strain on the hub? that's what I was doing at the time it rotated.

Would it hurt the hub to fit a bracket to the cable/cassette bracket like a coaster brake?

The reason to reinforce it is that even on road there are short 28% sections on some of the local climbs.
