A rare opportunity to go on the cheap; take a rug and a picnic and your best behaviour...... its black tie for the fellas though! PM if interested. If you aint done this before its well worth it.

its like this;
I have a bike (90s) that has a rear wheel with screw on six speed freewheel. The hub (low flange) needs replacing. Just finding a replacement screw on hub would be the simplest option as I then retain rim and spokes , so cost is kept minimal and the bikes keeps going....
However, an alternative is to replace the entire wheel, retain the freewheel. Its an option but only if there is a wheel lurking around looking for a bike.
Another alternative is that I would be interested in trying to upgrade the whole affair to 7/8 speed (with downtube shifters or otherwise) but this would probably be too costly given that it is not meant to be a project and I have other projects that need spending on.
Now I have discovered Spa cycles do cheap "Zenith" screw on hubs so that might be the new best option but no doubt quality is questionable.
(........Its very tempting to make this a single speed conversion and go out and buy a new "go anywhere" bike) -

should have mentioned tix are twenty quid each, thats face value.
