Glad to hear that you can still put a freewheel on threads for fixed.
You are welcome. And that sounds right to me, I've even seen it in print: fixed, fixed and fixed, free, but now we know that you can if need be fit a free on either--without the lock ring of course.
New to this stuff myself, I don't know what I would do without these forums.
