Found this from ebay seller bicycles-all. Curiosity got the better of me and I ordered one. This is in fact a 14t freewheel for 1.37 x 24 thread. Quality looks to be on parr with other generic free wheels. I don't like the gap shown in the pics, looks like bearing would get dirt fairly easily.

Threading this onto a BMX hub, it wider than a normal freewheel, so it won't work in BMX spaced drop outs, without spreading them, would probably work in mtn bk spacing.

Just wanted to throw it out there if anyone needs a 14t and does not have M30 threaded hub, this may work.

Don't know what I'll use it on, maybe small gear drive single speed, spread the drops on a bmx??

Got this to fit on a bmx hub, the hub needs to be straight between the threads and the spoke flange for this to fit. A lot of them flare larger. This was causing the Freewheel to bottom out on the hub instead of the threads.

Anyway, putting this into service, be a couple weeks before i get that bike out and swap wheelsets, we'll see if it lasts. No one rides it, kind of "next" bike for the kids.
Set it up with 39/14 instead of 44/16. I'm stealing the rims off it for something else and putting on black.

I had a tall bar on it for a while and was riding it, but the frame is too short for me.
