Schlotzsky's has over 310 franchised and company-owned locations throughout the United States. [1] Most locations are in the south and southwestern United States, but the company is expanding into areas across the country, particularly the north and southeast. [2] Schlotzsky's is now owned by GoTo Foods. [citation needed]
John James Henry Sturmey (1857–1930), known as Henry Sturmey, is best remembered as the inventor with James Archer of the Sturmey-Archer three-speed hub for bicycles, but he was a technical editor and journalist heavily involved as a pioneer of the cycling and automotive industries.
In 1966 Sturmey-Archer launched a new two-speed hub with a backpedal shifting action similar to the Fichtel and Sachs 'Torpedo Zwei Gang Duomatic'. The S2 – Sturmey-Archer's first 2-speed hub since the demise of the T series in 1941 and the last two speed they would make in the UK – featured a direct drive and a 28.6% gear reduction.
GoTo Foods (formerly Focus Brands) is an American company that currently owns the Schlotzsky's, Carvel, Cinnabon, Moe's Southwest Grill, McAlister's Deli, Auntie Anne's and Jamba brands. It is located in Sandy Springs, Georgia , and operates over 6,700 stores globally.
The sprocket on the hub is made for standard-pitch derailleur-type bicycle chains 1 ⁄ 2 by 3 ⁄ 32 inch (12.7 mm × 2.4 mm) (ISO 082) and is offered with different numbers of teeth, like 13/15/16/17. The 15-, 16-, and 17-tooth sprockets are reversible, offering double sprocket life once the sprocket is worn out in one direction.
At the time, the gear hub with the greatest number of speeds was the unreliable 3700 gram 12 speed Sachs Elan (discontinued by 2000), made by the hub-gear manufacturer Sachs (later acquired by SRAM). A year later Rohloff presented a workable prototype at the 1997 IFMA and won a crate of champagne from the employees at Sachs, who had bet against ...

The poles can be varied at a ratio of 1:2 and thus the speed can be varied at 2:1. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] [ 9 ] Normally, the electrical configuration of windings is varied from a delta connection (Δ) to a double star connection (YY) configuration in order to change the speed of the motor for constant torque applications, such as the hoists in cranes .
