Hi. I've used the search function before I get flamed.
I was just wondering if I could remove the freewheel from my fixed gear, but could I replace the free wheel on my flipflop hub with another fixed cog so that I have two different sized fixed cogs?
All the other posts were just about removing it, but like I said, I want to replace it with another fixed cog of a different size.
Another quick question. What gearing would be good for skidding, leg braking? I'm still running a front brake atm with a 44:16 ratio, but it seems stiff and over powering when I back-pedal, plus I live in a hilly area so I need to gear down as well. Was thinking 44:17 or 44:19.
If you need additional info, I've got a Fuji Feather 2012 with stock transmission parts, just Shimano SDR clipless pedals.
Thanks guys.
