Polyrhythm Posted July 2, 2009 Report Share Posted July 2, 2009 Parts required:Cranks (probably a pair)BMX type screw-on freewheel (don't go for those 'silent' ones, they're cack)Fixed rear hub (probably new spokes too depending on hub flange sizes)Rear screw-on sprocketCan of wormsChain (your old one may slip on new sprockets)It's not simple. As far as I know you'll need new cranks with the threaded section necessary to screw on a new BMX type freewheel. Then you'll need a new fixed rear hub so you can screw on a new rear sprocket. You'll probably find that you'll need a new chain too.Mind you, it's been a while since I had a front freewheel set up. Maybe there are some new fangled parts that would make conversion easier these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Themistoklidis Posted July 2, 2009 Report Share Posted July 2, 2009 hiya what will i need to get my free wheel at the front i have a onza t-birdWhy do you want to convert it?Its better to have a rear free hub because the chain doesn't wear as fast with a front freewheel....
