Alfine Groupset
That includes the DYNAMO front hub.
I bought from them a while ago, shipping took a while, and installation takes a bit of effort, but a fantastic hub deal.

workmate has the alfine 11 with hydraulic disks, yes
It appears that both versions of Alfine are disc brake compatible these days. The matching brakes don't appear in the picture though so it is hard to be sure. Maybe e-mail them and ask? The relevant part number (for the rear hub) is SG-S700-L.
Dynamo Hub is a hub with electric motor?
EDIT: Googled it and it appears to be a power generating Dynamo to charge/power a light, like the old-school headlights that ran by friction against the front wheel.
It is basically a generator for lights etc.
why generate electricity? cheapish cree lamps with beasty lithum ion battery packs are aplenty nowadays
So $500, and then you need to get a wheel built. Cheaper than a Rholoff, but not so many gears - 14 is equivalent to a derailer system. Heavier too. Not much gain for all that money and weight. Hub gears are still OK for kids' 3-speed bikes though :-)
I'm really interested in this, but I want to check first if it can be mounted with disc breaks??
Any idea??
