Fate of the UO-14

I have a UO-14 with nice alloy bits. It is too big for me (64cm). I am thinking about selling it to help fund the purchase of a Karate Monkey. I have a UO-8 with steel bits, cottered crank, all that. It fits me perfectly. I am thinking about keeping it. For a long time. That makes me want to strip the Alu bits off of the 14 and putting them on the 8. Will the 6 speed wheel work on the 5 speed bike? What do you guys think
