ive been working on my jc higgins bike which has a bendix rear hub. single speed coaster from mexico. well the hub itself works fine (great infact) but what im having prolems with is the sprocket. i went to change the bigger bendix stock sprocket for a pretty small sprocket off an un id old hub off a schwinn. the thing is, the sprocket wont fit on, it seems to be the exact same size, it just wont budge. i dont want to break it, so is there anything i can do? maybe just shave a little off the edge of the sprocket? thanks in advanced!!
ever had a sprocket problem with a bendix?

thats a shimano cog, thats why it dont fit.. you can grind it out to go on there, but its more than just the teeny bit it looks like.. :roll:
one side not of this you cant use a bendex cog really on a shimano. if you look close at the shimano there are small bumps on the side and when you put on the lock ring it helps hold the gear. on a bendix they dont have this so the cog wobbles. i guess you could use it but that would bug the heck out of me
