That's what I found with my new wheels. Hope springs eternal, nope. Should have known better, now I have spare parts I'll never use.
Rim questions, again...

The Kent bayside is a 7 speed, so it will not work if I get a single speed flywheel?

Probably not. You will find the sprocket too close to the hub. Would be nice if there was an extension of some sort.

Well would mag rims work then? Or could I attach the cogs from the 7 speed to it? I would much rather have a single speed than all those gears cause just don't need em.

It all depends on how the chain alignment comes down. The 3 spoke mags are probably a good choice for you. They aren't nearly as wide as the spoke wheel hubs. I would order the 3 speed freewheel and setup the bike as a 3spd with the derailer (just for the pedals, not a shift kit).

GW is on it because with the derailleur you don't have two chains to try and tension and line up. The derailleur takes care of most of that.

One more concern, is there anything I need to do to the 3 spoke mag rims when I get them?
