Cheers Dordy, could you have a check for me as I can only find the micro side flipflop in 13t, ideally I want a 14 or 15 tooth to fit a regular screw on hub  :daumenhoch:

Wayne Ryder:
I don't think you can go down to 13 on a regular hub, if you could I'd be all over one because none of my wheels are cassettes or flipflops. And because I bought a 36-tooth sprocket last year thinking I'd sort something out later down the line. It's a bit dusty these days...
ACS make a 15, I think that's as low as it goes. Alans have or have had them, but I was warned off buying one by a guy at Rom (name forgotten, rode Skyway new-school Graphites). Said they weren't very good.
Even Alans said they're better suited to smoother riders, which makes me think they're probably unreliable.

Waxintaxin:
15 with acs , but its rubbish

maybe new school has developed something , but 16 is all i can think of as going to fit
