python_man Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 its a FIXED hub which means u have a FIXED cog on the hub eg 12 tooth . IF you have a 12 tooth on the back you must have a freewheel on the front. you now need a set of cranks with a thread on . you also need a 127.5 or bigger bottom bracket. check the echo site for all what u need i run an echo front freewheel bottombracket an echo green fixed hub an echo 12 tooth fixed cog tensile cranks (with thread) and a normal freewheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egg Fried Rice Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 echo fixed hubs have enough fixed hubs have enough to fit a freewheel or a cog, a fixed hub doesnt mean it only takes cogsJohn Kan the china man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobnobs Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 (edited) yer he is running a rear freewheel but thats what i said they are FIXED hubs whech means FIXED cogs only there isnt enough thread for a freewheel thats why they are made Actually, you can run either a cog, or a freewheel, as long as the threads are the right size. Fixed just refers to the hub itself, rather than a freehub, such as a profile. Although, im not exactly sure what the problem is.

python_man Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 unless you get a uber thin freewheel u cant fit a free wheel on as there is not enough thread to have a freewheel then the snail cam then put it on your bike check the echo site if you do not believe me cogs only!!!!http://www.echobike.com/got and look at the fixed hub section and it will explain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
