Hi All,

I am looking to convert my 2010 Genesis Day One Commuter to fixed gear. Has anyone else done this? Can anyone give me advice on what size thread the genesis flip flop hub is for buying a sprocket and lockring?

    2011 Genesis Day One already comes with a flip flop hub. According to specs on Genesis website it is "KT Flip-flop 135mm rear"

    Thanks,

    Yes I am aware it is a flip flop hub (crew thread was the giveaway), but I would like to know what size sprocket thread I need to screw onto it.

    Freewheel and fixed threads will be the same 1.37" x 24tpi Lockrings can vary.
