Hi All,
I have a commute bike with a worn 8sp spin-on (freewheel) 14-25 with campag 8sp athena. I'm cheap and lazy so there is not much hope of re-lacing the wheel with a cassette - also, the hub is super smooooooth a suntor superb and it would be a shame to lose it
The biggest cog the athena can take is 26.
I can find Defiant 7sp 13-24 but as I am also getting older (as well as cheap and lazy) I'm thinking 24 is maybe too tough for gladesville bridge and 26 or 25 would be better.
So, does anyone have an idea where in the world I might find a 13-26 screwon?
Can you take screw-on's apart and swap cogs around?
Has anyone ever ground the middle out of a cassette cog to fit it to a screw-on?
thanks,
Matthew
