Can i use this with a singlespeed freehub, not a fixie, just regular singlespeed rear cassette? thanks!

No this is designed for shimano or sram cassettes only. This will work with 8 through 10 speed cassettes I think a 7 speed will work but needs a spacer.

No you can not. You would have to replace the hub, a lot of work. Zerolite makes a singlespeed wheel.

My understanding is you can convert down but not up. Here's what I mean, 10 speed cassette can be converted down to 9 or 8 possibly 7 and all you would need is a space for the freehub. Explanation:The freehub gets shorter in lenth to allow for bigger gears. So to put a 8 speed on your bike you would need to change your freehub. Are you converting bike to 8 speed? Or are you just keeping seven speed shifter and deraillier. If so just buy 7 speed cassette geared for the way you ride, it would keep things simple.

yes .you can even use index shifting if you like ----shimano spacing is the same for 6/7/8gears drives cassette or frewheel....... happy rides.

Yep. It'll work fine. You can put a road cassette on a MTB rear mech., but not always the other way around.

Howdy... all rear derailleurs need a hanger. You can buy bolt-on hangers if you don't already have one on your frame. Inespensive, but likly to break if you do a lot of rough riding. I'm not sure but I think this one will only accomodate up to about a 37 tooth chain ring. Check on Shimano's site though. My own rear cassettes only fo up to either 37 or 39 teeth.

Currently in using with a 7 speed. It works like a charm. Easy to install. I would imagine you can use the 8 speed cassette in combination with no issue. Hope this helps

Usually cassette sizes 7,8 & 9 are compatible. It's a newer bike so I think you should be fine. Remember if you decide to switch the speeds on the bike you're also going to have to switch the shifters if they are not compatible to the speed...

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.

So long as you have made sure your hub is infact a freewheel, and not a cassette, it should not be an issue.

Yes. As the product description says " Compatible with all Shimano and Sram hubs ".......slides on a freehub NOT for a threaded freewheel

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.

The freewheel you need depends on what wheel you have. The freewheel doesn't generally need to be replaced with the cassette.

The cassette should work on any Shimano or SRAM hub. As far as I know, all Shimano hubs, mountain or road, use the same 'mounting pattern' for cassettes.

Its a single gear + spacers that can replace a multi-speed cassette. This has no effect on fixed or single, that's determined by your hub.

i think it will not work with the 8 speed cassette. its better if you buy an specific for 8 speed

This is a screw on freewheel requiring threads on the rear hub popular on older bikes 1990's and older. I believe newer bikes use cassettes and are not interchangeable. Perhaps some less expensive bikes may still use freewheels. You can take your rear wheel to your local bike store and they can tell you what you have. You will need some kind of removal tool you can buy from them anyway.

Hi, I bought these wheels for my 71 Schwinn with a freewheel. I don't own a bike with a cassette, but I understand that this is completely different from a freewheel. I think that there are different models of rim with different hubs loaded for freewheels, fixies, and cassettes, so look for those. For my bike however, the LP18's are great. These are in fact some sort of aluminum alloy.
