I have just bought an old carbon disc wheel, which is nicely build, a little tatty but spins for ages :-). It has a Suntour Freehub and 6 speed block attached and I'm yet to get this off and have a proper look at the problem, so this post is a little premature, So I;m looking for some insight into the problems I'm gonna find.
First and simple question is does anyone know if this will work on a suntour hub? why/why not http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fixed-Wheel-Hub-Adaptor-Converter-Correct-Chainline-Singlespeed-FIXIE-/150785338405?_trksid=p4340.m185&_trkparms=algo%3DDLSL%252BSIC.NPJS%26its%3DI%26itu%3DUCI%252BUA%26otn%3D10%26pmod%3D150743809262%252B150743809262%26po%3D%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D7676884132014365166#ht_1225wt_1331
What else should I worry about?
I'm guessing I can lash up a suicide set up and I run two brakes for big hills in the winter, although the disc is for TT's, but I'm after an ideal chain line.
