Yes, it definitely can be. I have ridden a Greenspeed trike equipped with
the Rohloff hub (406mm/20" rear wheel). I didn't care for it much. Not
sure what the benefit really is, since it is very heavy, very expensive, and
adds significant drag to the drivetrain.
OTOH: If your main goal is low maintenance and weatherproof durability, the
Rohloff hub might be a decent choice.
Just my $.02 worth.
