Will this hub accept a single speed freewheel? I am replacing wheel on my beach cruiser.

Absolutely not what you need! If your bike has a rear coaster brake (pedal pushed backwards to brake) put that in your Amazon search. Try this Avenir 36H Nutted Cruiser Style Rear Wheel with Coaster Brake (Silver, 26 x 1.75-Inch)

Hi Bernadette, I don't see why your single speed freewheel wouldn't work with the Wheel Master Rear Bicycle Wheel 26 x 1.5 36H, but I'm no bicycle expert? If you have a local bike shop in your area I'm sure that they can give you a more definitive answer than I. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

Yes it should definitely work, as long as the frame supports the same wheel size. In fact, i would wager that it would be easier to use on a one speed bike.

The hub is ISO threaded (1.375" x 24 tpi). It should work with most any threaded freewheel (italian, ISO, or british, which are 1.378", 1.375", and 1.370" respectively, all 24 tpi).

In short, yes. It's one-piece freewheel that screws on. You don't need any tools, hand-tight is fine (but snug it down), it will tighten up as you pedal. And put a little grease on the threads first. You will probably need a tool to remove the old freewheel though. More info: http://sheldonbrown.com/freewheels.html

not exactly...this is a 14 tooth (small cog) which means your top speed will be different and it is possible that some of the intermediate cogs could have different tooth counts also. Plus you want to make sure you have a thread on hub as this is. (screws on and off). If yours isn't a screw on then you need a "cassette" type.

I put a 7 speed freewheel on this wheel and it works great. 6 will work too. I am assuming you have the old 27 inch, 126mm hub config like most road bikes of the 1970s and 1980s.

Yes. But why doesn't the merchant answer? I converted single speed beach cruiser with fat tires to a 6 speed and used these brakes. Good quality large and inexpensive.

Drum brakes are different and wheel hub is different. Use this on a 150cc long case with a short axle. If you don't run rear drum brakes it should work

Wheel hubs, where you attach these, are generally made in two sizes: for 7 cogs or less, or for 8 and up. It probably won't fit. See Sheldon Brown's site for more than you ever wanted to know about bikes.

I put one on a single speed beach cruiser from Target. It works great. This should fit your bike.

NOt sure, I just have a seven speed beach cruiser, from what other reviewers state it can be done with an inexpensive fitting from a bike shop ?

Years ago I had a 5 speed and upgraded to a 7 speed. The new freewheel should screw on no problem. Although....... The rear wheel will most likely need yo be "re-dished". Meaning....... The rear hub will need to be shifted on the axle to the left to accommodate the additional gears. That will offset the rim and will not be "centered". It will then need to be centered. 'Re-dished". You might need a new chain, depending whether you present chain is long enough. New chain ? About $10.00. The re-dish might run $15.00 to $20.00. This will be needed to be dona at a bike shop. My suggestion..... 1. Call a bike shop first and explain what you want to do. They will be familiar with the situation. 2. You will also need a special tool to remove the old freewheel. The bike shop will have it will make the swap when you bring them you wheel and new freewheel. Call the shop before the purchase. The freewheel is a great price. Two extra gears will be nice. I would certainly do it. Good luck. Enjoy the ride !

This freehub is removed with a 10mm allen-type hex wrench. It does not come with the recessed bolt, which you will find on your existing freehub. Unless, of course, it's an early press-fit Uniglide type. In which case, you must replace the hub to switch to Hyperglide. Hope that this helps...

Does "fixed" mean that the pedals continuously spin when in motion? Yes, however this bike offers a flip flop hub which can switch to a single speed which will allow free wheel motion. These hubs are very popular on single speed and fixed bikes.

Yes, it has a flip flop hub so you can switch it from fixie to single speed and coast to your hearts content.

Yes it works fine. I need rear wheel hubs soon I was told. Once I find I will share the link

Single speed but you have to have a freehub (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Nabe_01_KMJ.jpg/220px-Nabe_01_KMJ.jpg) already on your wheel. It basically just replaces all your different gears with spacers.
