I’m doing a full restoration on the Araya Road 821, but thought also that it would be a good candidate for a single speed so wanted to try that out. If I can’t find a solution, I’ll just restore it to 12-speed. So, looks like I’ve got to figure out if there is any non-cycling lock ring that would work in this specific situation. Again, any suggestions greatly appreciated.
see the updated response above... your lockring will be a common BICYCLE part.
sorry about the "updates'... i'm suffering a bad tooth and on pills that are NOT pleasant... and had to look up the old uniglide thread size... once i saw that... the wheels began to spin.
