So I just got my taska ufree from flatland fuel, wheel looks amazing. i held it in my hands and when i spun it forward it felt really gritty and rough...but backwards was really smooth. I looked at an article about maintaining it, and found no matter how much I turned the driver anti-clockwise, it would not come off. Is this something anyone has dealed with? Or should I just email FF and see what they think? I should also mention this will be my first freecoaster....(i've been learning with a cassette the whole time!)

First coaster?  No shit.  Coulda had me fooled with all your set ups.  I would have pegged you as having one by now.

If one was to find a 14mm homer front hub is there any easy way of converting it to 10mm? Like swap a marmoset axle and bearings over?

[Mychaylo]

Nope would have to be a monkey axle i believe, the marmoset bearings were much smaller than homers, still massive though.

Damn. Any good 14mm forks with brake mounts then

[Mychaylo]

If you fancy going custom i guess s&m would do it but you live in 'straya if i remember? Ill check some sites here for a monkey axle if you want?

Yeah I live in the land down under so custom s&m shit will be expensive as fuck. Been thinking if I can't make a 10mm axle work I'll just run a wheel for brakes and a wheel for brakeless.

I think spev was doing custom bmx shit so if I get these wheel I could get an axle made up

Email G for sure. Maybe you could put a different bearing in there along with a marmoset axle

Ah cheers hadn't thought of emailing him

Dont bother emailing G. You already had the correct advice. Marmoset axle isnt going to fit. That hub has been discontinued about 8 years now at a guess. Any solution is likely to need to be a custom option or trawled up off ebay... Sorry.
