HD Axel

[gunslingerburrito]

So, I have an HD hub and sprocket that came with my kit. I am using the rag joint for now, and I'm planning to install the new hub. But, I have a 5 speed cassette on the right side of the cruiser.

Has anyone had experience installing this hub with a cassette on the right side?
I can always remove it and go with a single sprocket and shorten the chain if absolutely necessary.

Thank you!

I have used 5, 6, and 7 speed threaded freewheels without any major problems on the HD rear hub. The hardest part is getting the axle spacing correct for proper chain alignment and frame clearance.
