Dylan, let me lay this out in very simple terms. . Nothing except a quality hub and lockring will keep that cog on. Nothing.
NOTHING other than a proper track/fixed hub with reverse threaded lockring is reliable for holding a sprocket on when reverse torque is applied. NOTHING. Even if you have brakes, the unreliable arrangement can injury you because you might opt to use reverse torque in lieu of the brakes, and lose time and distance before taking corrective action. Possibly the most dangerous you can put on a bike is an unreliable brake (or something you might use as one). So either use a proper track hub, or use a freewheel. |
+1) Leave it as a Freewheel 1 speed OR, Get a proper fixie Hub wheel
they are threaded twice.. Cog goes on RH thread , lock ring goes on LH thread. OR.. [More, spending involved) SRAM Torpedo Hub can be fixed or freewheels with a screwdriver turning a locking pin in or out.. https://www.sram.com/sram/urban/family/torpedo Sellers, with a QBP account, Many.. this one of them https://www.benscycle.com/p-3714-sra...Nm0RoC_lrw_wcB |
