I apologize as this is mentioned in other threads but I haven't seen a resolution yet.
I purchased a grubee HD Axle/Hub from bicycle-engines.com a while back. I got it laced up with 10 gauge spokes by Wheelmaster and took it to the local bike shop to get a freewheel for the pedal side (the hub doesn't come with one).
Nothing fit. I tried another bike shop. Nothing fit. Tried a third bike shop. Nothing fit. The threads are close, but jam after a couple turns. The drum for the drum brake fits fine on the left and right side, so I know the threads are in good shape.
I checked the grubee site. It says the threads are 35x1. Unfortunately, this doesn't exist. There is I.S.O. = 34.92 x 1.048 mm
as well as Brittish = 34.80 x 1.058 mm and the far less common French = 34.7 x 1 mm.
I sent messages to bicycle-engines.com, and grubee. Don Grube responded with "It is 35x1" and the folks at bicycle-engines.com told me they've never had a problem before and sent me to another bike shop which has yet to respond to my messages.
Has anyone successfully screwed a freewheel onto one of these hubs? If so, can you tell me what kind of threads this thing has?
Any help would be great!
Thanks!
