Singlespeed Conversion, Help Needed Please

I am very rarely rude or offensive but you are.... frequently.
If you are going to give advice to a newbie try to use the correct terms to describe the parts of the wheel/bike he will need to research about before he converts, otherwise he will waste a lot of time and effort before he realises you are in fact talking out of your arse. Now run along and check out the captains web site bicycle glossary again and again until you get it right

Mate, shut up.

First of all, how do you know he's a 'newbie'? He's might have been riding a bike a hell of a lot longer than you for all you know. You talk about not being rude.

Second of all, re-read the man's post. All he says is that he has a freehub, and it has a 5-speed cassette on it. How do you know it's not a screw-on cassette?

Also, of course you wouldn't add spacers and redish.

You're blatantly trying to start an argument here.
