You can either drill one to fit, or shell out $40.00 for a Boone titanium cog specifically made for bolting to a disc hub.<BR/><BR/>Disc wheels can be had cheaply enough, that the overall cost may come out the same (Boone cog = $40.00, regular track cog = $25.00 approx.).<BR/><BR/>You can then space a single cog onto the freehub side for the flip-flop aspect. I did this on my KHS mountain fixie, last year and it worked like a charm.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15989502925369231042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37888568.post-67370562114972896892007-12-04T09:53:00.000-06:002007-12-04T09:53:00.000-06:00Noah, contact the guys at Freeride Midwest on Niem...Noah, contact the guys at Freeride Midwest on Nieman just north of SMPKY. They built an extra free\fixed wheel for me when I needed one in Colorado. As for fixed, if you want to try that, let me know...I have one and it would fit you. They can be a bit squirley at times for new-to-fixed.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17336140035741001980noreply@blogger.com
