Thanks for all the input gents(and maybe ladies), know that it wont go to waste. Yeah I'm really not looking to make my budget bike a 1000$ bike, or I would have bought a 1000$ bike. I was mainly concerned about the extra bad parts(lock ring) wrecking my somewhat bad parts(stock hub) within the first couple hundred miles. I wont be upgrading wheelsets till the stocks turn to dust, but I would like them to last as long as possible and was just confirming the lockring issue.

Do I need to get a new Cog too? If so, what is the best cog and lockring set up I could get for the kilo? And if not the just what lockring?

thanks you helped me a bunch already. If anyone needs BMX advise let me know haha!
