  • Rolf Vigor FX (not flip/flop but website says it can accept a threaded freewheel - shop says it is fixed only and they won't warranty using a fw)
  • Sram Rival brakes (Rolf has a machined brake track)

I keep getting conflicting information and the more I read about thread sizes, fw not threading in properly and chain lines the more confused I get as to which products will work together.

Thanks for your help.
Lame shop. Rolf says it's freewheel compatible, and I assume they warranty the product, not the shop.
