Ringle Bubba Freewheel Hub question.

It's the 8 speed SunRace in the eBay link I posted above. Bikes locked away but if you need a pic I can get one tomorrow.

The two 7 speeds I have are the same looking, again pics in the sale thread I posted up for you.

I'll get back to you re the LF measurement in a minute which will tell you wheather you can fit an 8 speed or not.

OK I missed the 8-speed in the thread.

Thank you so much!! That would really help me out.

I dug the bike out for you.





The LF_right on my 8 speed screw on hub is closer to 50mm so with the flange width you also gave I would say it's definitely 7 speed. If you woul like either or both the new boxed cassettes I have let me know. Tim

Wow, I think it looks super!! Thank you so much. 10mm is quite a difference. I will re-mesuare tomorrow and get back to you. It is either your 7-speed or finding a Sachs.

Again, thank you for all the help, really appreciate it!

Thank you for all your help mate! I have found a Sachs 8-speed, that should be possible to modify to 7-speed if it will not fit, so I will give that one a try. I will post the progress(hopefully).

No worries, keep us updated. Can the Sachs one be taken apart?

Yes it should be possible to remove the smallest cog, Will post how it goes

I tried to find a Sachs one too but they all seem to have road ratios. Where did you find yours out of interest?

Sorry, I missed your question. I found one 12-32 on eBay. But you are right, almost all of the ones I have seen are with road ratios. If I have to modify it(which I probably do) it will be 14-32 7-speed. Hope I can get it sorted.

Hello mate, any joy doing this conversion?
