Yes you can put a freewheel on a track hub.
"no intention to run fixed"
Just out of curiosity why not? If you have a suitable bike why not give it ago?

Cheers. All I need to do now is find a cheap rear wheel - not easy!
I have given it the briefest of goes before, wasn't a fan. Who knows I may pick it up again later in the year, hence the flip flop.

Hi there, I am also in the same situation. I am looking for a rear flip/flop-fixed/free wheel but cannot see anything ready to buy.
I know that it you order custom build wheels but are more expensive and take time :-(
Hello, long time listener, first time caller here. Great site and stuff, been invaluable for info and advice.
Quick question..I have a track frame that I am running single speed (no intention to run fixed). At present I have a flip flop hub on the rear, but it has died (dismantled the hub last night, replaced cones and barings but still feels like wading through mud).
I want to buy a new rear wheel but can't seem to find ready built flip flops or free wheel wheels. Am I being dumb or can you buy a rear track wheel and attach a free wheel, or is it quite difficult to buy these out side full builds such as the langster etc?
Any help gratefully received.
