Hacks / Bodges

Amazing stuff, thanks for sharing

Had to watch the video to understand it. Pretty cool.

why on earth would you want to do that?

Have you ever ride fixed?

You know better Tijs ;)

getting the sprockets off that rear hub to build it into a wheel will be lolz...

The concept is flawed and the ratio will always be the one from the fixed gear side.

Edit: I stand corrected, I rewatched and the other size is a freewheel.

I saw somethink similar once with a freewheel on either side but different ratios. You need two magic gears to fit together but the idea is to pedal fast forward but lower ratio when skidding ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I wangled a cheap Brompton rack from eBay, stupidly forgetting that you need the rack-specific mudguard. No matter! I drilled out the rivet from the roller wheel, bent the mount, and ziptied it to the rack. No wobbling or knocking.

I would have liked to leave the mount unbent, but the spacing meant the underside bolts rubbed on the tyre.

Please tell me that wood screw is not involved.

I did used it to push the silver axle

Posted this in someone’s project thread but could be more useful here if it’s not been done already: neat little cable tie trick for cable routing, just add a washer. Learned from ex psyclewerx mechanic Parry in Bristol.
