Hubs?
 

Does there exist fixed gear hubs with traditional 130mm spacing and not 120mm track spacing?:confused:

Yes Phil Wood makes one. Surly makes a converter for rear track hubs. White Industries makes the Eric's Eccentric Eno fixed gear hub. A UK compamy called Goldtech also makes one. Suzue's basic track hubs axles are long enough if you use spacers. Van Dessel also has the hubs you are looking for. However you may be able to replace your existing axles with longer ones to run the desired setup.

and as of monday it's backordered 4-6 weeks.

Yikes!!!!
FWIW, I use a suzue with 126mm spacing, and it certainly is good for 130mm. (Keep in mind, though, that the Suzue flip/flop won't have the same chainline setting from the fixed side to the free side)

I just respace the Suzue hubs for zero dish and 130 spacing. This has worked well on several bikes I have built. The suzues are cheap to. I also like old freewheel hubs respaced and dished to zero. If you build it up zero dish and equal length spokes it gives you a little more play room if you want to shift the hub for chainline issues.

Surly also makes a flip-flop hub for road bike conversion called the New Road Hub - 130mm spaced.

thanks for that information


4 YEARS LATER!

I have a feeling the OP already has a hub.

Well, it's been four years. Maybe he needs a new one.

How did this even happen?

Maybe people are finally using the search function and digging up artifacts.

Dammit, Brandune, I already miss your old avatar.

****, didn't even realize it was you! Bring back the toupee cat!

mhm...i haven't even been here for long, but that toupee cat was one of my favorite parts.

oh and this cracks me up...

HAHA! Not only does this guy probably have the hub he needs, it probably needs an overhaul now.

So who do you think will with the NL? Yankees are up 3-0... Sox don't have a CHANCE! VOTE KERRY! KERRY '04!!!!!!!

Thanks for the info, learn to read post dates.

I said this already


YESTERDAY :D
