Rear Gear Help!

Hello all! Just wanted to say hello and ask a quick question. I just been reading this site for awhile and seems awsome! So i got myself a china kit and am currently installing it on my Schwinn Cruiser! Well i am to the rear gear, and it doesnt fit over the hub. Is this correct or should i take the trusty dremel tool to it to make it slide over? I havent installed it yet for fear of bending spokes if I need to enlarge the hole some before i install it. Thanks in advance for any help.

If you can grind it out perfectly on center, go for it. I usually remove the dust cap, grind off the outer flange and reinstall. It's quicker and more accurate.
 
Cool, thanks I will give that a try . Sounds much easier. Looks like i will be taking my rear wheel and gear to work with me !

Thank you!

Don't forget to make the slight "Z" bend in the brake arm. to clear the sprocket bolts. Just give it a bend near the axle hole and another out at the tip where it fits up with the "clamp" to the chainstay.
