Re-threading a hub
 

Is it possible(or a good idea) to have the freewheel side of a flip-flop hub machined to properly thread a lockring?
I've searched here and sheldonbrown's site and can't find an answer.

you can do it, if you disassemble your wheel first, then take it to a machine shop and pay a bunch of money to have it done right, and then put your wheel back together.

why don't you just get a flip flop that has both sides for fixed ?

no

why dont you stop telling him what to do

ok, so more trouble than its worth. thanks!

Especially considering a new fixed hub is like $40 max for say a formula.

i've been curious about this myself. i've got a formula flip flop hub lying around, and one of my roommates has access to the required machines....
