Here's a couple of newbie questions: I have a pair of these Aeroragewheels for my upcoming singlespeed project and I got the rear wheel yesterday. I want to go singlespeed (not fixed) and be able to coast. But when I spin the wheel in my hands it doesn't coast like a "normal" mtb/road wheel, instead the threads on both sides are moving. I thought that one side of the hub was intended for fixed riding and the other for freewheeling? And yes, I have the fixed/freewheel version, all confirmed by Evans Cycles and the Halo website. What am I doing wrong here?
And, on which side of the wheel should the sprocket and lockring be if I wan't to be able to coast? One side of the hub is threaded and the other one is also threaded but there is a slight difference in height on the threads. I haven't bought a sprocket and lockring yet.
I told you that it was newbiequestions...Appreciate your answers.
