ok I hope I don't piss anyone off... but I just bought a entry level road bike for dirt cheap only to upgrade my 27" heavy A** wheels on my current single speed ride (along with the stem, pedals, saddle, & a few other things... ) anyways,

The rear hub off the new bike has eight cogs on it, when I buy a 16 tooth cog to convert it to one speed, will the "cassette" remain a "freewheel" instead of locking onto the wheel as a fixed gear? I don't want to go fixie, (i know I know)

welp,
thanks for any help...
