[@it_broto3101]

hub name?, can i use that hub on my twitter r5 road bike? i want to have a try on fixe

[@josephxkendrick]

@@it_broto3101 They are rims by Vision. I've just flipped the hun around and used a 6-bolt fixed gear cog where the disc rotor would usually go!

[@fortuner6088]

How u can put fixed gear cog on gear hub?

[@josephxkendrick]

@@fortuner6088 Used a '6-bolt' fixed gear cog which doesn't have a threading but instead has 6 holes drilled in same position as a disc rotor, can then be attached by flipping the wheel and using the disc rotor holes. This wheel uses Centrelock so I just used a Centrelock-to-6-bolt adaptor to get it to work.

@@josephxkendrickwhat about the drop outs on the frame? How do you get them to work for fixed gear drive chain

[@angelomedi]

[@josephxkendrick]

I've run this frameset with gears, singlespeed and fixed gear. Awesome in every application!

[@ImagineGTAVI]

I love fixed, but I would have kept the disc brakes.

[@josephxkendrick]

@@ImagineGTAVI Still got disc up front! I did look into a fixed/disc hub and there's only one company that really does it (Paul) and it was super pricy!
