Largest tooth count difference for White Industries Eccentric Rear Hub?
If I'm running a White Industries Eccentric Rear Hub with a freewheel on each side, what's the largest difference the two freewheels can have from each other? Could I run a 16 and a 20 or is that too wide of a range?

it kinda depends on the length of your dropouts/fork ends. 4 teeth difference might be getting dangerously close to the edge.

No, it doesn't. :|

How much space does the Eno hub give you in a circumference? |
White says you can order a Flip/flop Eno...I would say that the issue is in Chain length not anything else and 4 teeth is probably too much.

You are correct, but only because you didn't make it apparently clear that your running it on a Verticle Dropout frame
In any case, I ordered two white industries freewheels that are 3 teeth apart. We'll see how well it works when they arrive. |
It doesn't just depend on the teeth count difference, it also depends where your chain falls with each freewheel.
For example, I had a frame with short horizontal dropouts geared 42/15. Although the dropouts were long enough to accommodate a 6 tooth difference, there was no way I could run 42/15 and 42/16 on my flip flop because the chain would be too short in one or too long in another if I added a link. Each tooth moves the axle 1/8". You can try measuring the hub in each position. |

the erics eno hub is a fixed/free. you cant run freewheels on both sides... if you were doing a cog and freewheel 4 tooth might be too much for the hub to rotate to take up slack.
