question on geared hubs


ok so i looked and i didnt see a thread on this so i figured i would
ask. i am sorry if this is a dumb question, but i am new to this whole
long distance unicycling thing....
i am going to be getting my student loan rebate check back soon, and i
know i am going to have some extra money in my bank account. I just
brought a titan 36, and i am quite fond of it, and the long distance
rides but i have also been looking into geared hubs too.

I know that the main one unicyclist use is the schlumpf, but when i was
on a biking site today i saw the sram geared hubs, and they are quite a
bit cheaper for example 300ish compared to 1,200 dollars. So my
question is could you build a unicycle out of a sram hub? has anybody
done this or tried/or know anybody who has?
I am sure there is a reason why we use the schlumpf instead, i just
dont know it yet
