Review on ๐Ÿšด CyclingDeal Fixie Bike Conversion Kit: Shimano Adaptor, Single Speed Compatible by Joe Kokenge

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect fit for Shimano Uniglide hub bodies.

This kit was installed on a Shimano Uniglide driver body in the mid 80's. All splines on the body of this style have the same width and depth. The aluminum shims and steel cog fit perfectly into the hub shell, and a variety of additional shims are included to fine-tune the chainline. I didn't use the locking ring from the kit because the Uniglide body has an external thread. Luckily the old English style bottom bracket locking ring fits this thread. I was really shocked at how well everything fitted together as Uniglide cassette construction is outdated. Haven't ridden a bike yet so can't comment on the durability of this kit.

Pros
  • A Sea of Positive Emotions
