Hub question

(1/1)

Nosnod:
Excuse my ignorance  :-[

Is a 'flip flop' hub simply a hub that has both sides threaded to accept a freewheel on each side?

Are they any wider, or will they fit OK on an Old School frame?

CD17:
Yes.



No they are no wider.  ;D

Nosnod:
cheers mate  ;)

billstup:
On mine one side will take a old school size freewheel of no smaller than 16 t, whilst the other will accept the smaller new school size of freewheel which goes down to 13t  ;)

aditup2004:
Correct Bill, and some are the same size on both side. ;)
