  • Yeah was trying to keep it simple. I'm running 24 so can't do just flipping the wheel as 13 /14t are for bmx hubs. Winstanley's say they fit flip flops but I've seen them and they don't. I can't see how there would be room for the bearings if they did.
    If I can get the chainring on then I'm happy not to flip the wheel as well.
    So the answer is E13 bolts or the extensions, and washers to space the ring away from the guard?

  • Can't you commute fixed? You can get 13 in fixed cogs (hell i've got a 12), that will also mean you don't need to worry so much about brake alignment... And 17 freewheel for polo?

  • Yeah I guess. Will see what the HH jumble has for me.

  • J - As Louis said you could put fixed sprocket on the other side (I use a 18t freewheel and 13t sprocket) or if you want to be freewheel all the time you could get a bmx hub with a <13t driver and a freewheel thread on the other side.

  • Since we are somewhat on the subject, anyone has a 13T 1/8" sprocket? Got a 12T for trade :)

  • Anyone got a kaffenback they want to give me? I'm tempting myself to buy one.... Want a nice 25c+ road bike/tourer....

    I've been gazzumpted!

  • Wicksie, you want it? Else I don't mind some DIY to get it in shape.

    i've got a 13t sprocket coventry, youll have to file the burrs offa it becasue the chain sticks, it a bit worn....

    can post it to you, want it?
    pop a couple of quid in my paypal/no trade unless yours is worn too... :)

  • Ha, B'zumpin'.

    No worries, you take it CE. Cheers.

  • Ben you still got a 12t then?

  • Whut, you've got one? Double B'zumpted.
    ;)
    Or maybe a 12t won't fit with 16t...

  • Yups, you want it Lou?

    Ben you still got a 12t then?

  • No need for a doublezumping, wicks if you want the 12 it's yours (I've got two, but I seem to have worn through the previous 12t in about 6 months, so I'm stockpiling! As 12s can be hard to get hold of)... Although I'd recomend getting a recessed lockring as most lockrings are too wide for a 12t.

    They are $10 on milwakee bike co, but then you've got to get it too the uk...

  • Oh forgot to say, depends on price and wear Ben, has it been used a lot?

  • Will dig it out tomorrow. Trade for tinnies? :)

  • Cool, not sure I'm playing next week, but will pm when I'm next playing.

    (Joni still has first dibs though)

  • You're a gent, cheers L. Got a 13 from t'jumble so I'm good ta.

  • Actually, just realised I should have bought 3 as my team mates will need some.
    If you're not desperate for it mate I'd be interested?

  • My new front wheel (Mavic D521, 32h, 3x pattern) coupled with a Schwalbe Big Apple has held up really well. It seems significantly stronger than the 48h Halo it replaced. I'm seriously considering a change to a mountain bike so I could have 26" all-round, but everything I've seen has a wheelbase and/or chainstays that are too long.

    Nope that's cool, as i said I was just stock piling!

    Although if you spot a link to a shop selling 12t cogs point it out to me? :)
