Turning Fixed into SS

What is the best hub and freewheel out there?

white industries easily make the best freewheel. the best hub is speculative, but i would offer paul or phil wood to be some of the best hubs around.

assuming that you're already riding fixed and want to go single speed; couldn't you just thread a freewheel onto your fixed hub, add brakes, and be set?

Just use the fixed hub! *And no lockring, of course.

seriously. just thread the freewheel onto the hub you have right now. the freewheel don't care about that little space for the lockring.
