This is how real engineering is done. You start with a simple need, but end up learning so much. In reality it was probably efficient to just buy a bike with this in the first place. But your learning experience with this is priceless. Well done for ploughing through this and sharing all the problems and how you solved it! And also crediting all the videos in the process - very few people do this!
Thanks a tonne bro. I was actually considering adding a gearkit to my wife's cycle myself, as other videos on youtube make it look simple. But no one spoke of axle length, frame widening, chain and crankset teeth thickness etc. This was really eye opening. Now I am just going to take it to a mechanic to get done. Thanks!!!
This video is brilliant - is shows your perseverance through ongoing challenges. And instead of giving up you just problem solved for a while before figuring out the solution. Well done
good work brother I am software engineer at the same time a cyclist too what you have done is a great stepping forward not your career but in your life, bicycles gave me the life that I wanted from a tired and stressful life in the tech world it gave me balance and more physical activities now I am able to ride bike with my gf, my brother and sometimes my with friends. Keep it up don't let the stressful industry swallow you up it is better to be balanced than to be stressed
I'm really glad I came across your video. I recently bought a Dahon single speed bike and while I did enjoy riding it, riding up inclines is absolute hell on my legs and nearly blacked out. Twice. I was planning on upgrading/modding the bike with a few adjustments to make my rides easier. And seeing that a 6-gear hub will not fit a single gear hub really made me rethink about installing a 6-speed hub. It would be better to get a 3-speed hub for the spacing. Overall, it would have been much easier to just buy another bike and just toggle with that instead. That way, all you have to do is swap out the OEM with aftermarket parts.
This is a great video... thanks for sharing! I am looking at adding gears to a fat tyre BMX and then adding an electric motor... This gave me quite a bit of insight into what I'm trying to do. Could you have not just replaced the chain wheel with a compatible one? Or are these universal and an expected challenge?
Nice work. Good documentation. I have done plenty of DIY on motorcycles when I was younger. My only q. After everything was done, could you manage to get the rear wheel properly aligned , as in, centered?
Finally. I've been searching all over the internet the past month or so to see if I could find a video to answer 'one' question. Can you put a multi speed 'freewheel' on a fixie/single speed hub? And the answer is, yes you can. Thank you so much for all the knowledge and information you provided through the problems you had to solve to complete your project/bike build. You sir are a enigma, an anomaly, better yet, a superstar.
My idea was to convert a cool old 1960s single speed cruiser into a multi- gear bike. Thank you for convincing me not to try it- too much of a hassle. Maybe another way would be to install an internal gear hub ??
Me, I'd have just bought another bike and called it a day. Having an off center wheel and brakes is not something I would want, but I will say, awesome job getting your project finished.
I had 24 inch wheel, I want to upgrade it to 26 inch, when I tried it worked for single speed (rear wheel free to rotate 26 inch one) but when I put gears (I already installed it for 24inch) it strikes the frame,... Please anyone know how to keep wheel at the centre even after installing the gears???? Please help me out guys..
Im also considering upgrading my gears and I have come up with a solution regarding the axle not long enough, offset ecc. Maybe buying a rear wheel with 7 speed cog(i found some in Facebook market that is ready to mount) will simplify the job.
Or install a new hub into your wheel. Make sure the diameter of the spoke holes is the same so you can reuse your spokes otherwise it will be too costly.
Thank you for the detailed explanation, got a great idea of what problems I can face if I choose to go ahead and a different perspective on the solutions! Great job
From outside it just looks like a mad project. But it is a significant achievement and needs to be appreciated. Moreover he is enjoying it. So well done bro....👍👍👍
Wow, really enjoyed the video, learning new skills to fix problems for a basic bike is really something special. 1. Spare Parts: I am a German living in Taiwan. Here the students have a good infrastructure for cheap repair shops, 2nd hand bikes, and parts around universities. Is this not the case where you live? I mean buying a round handlebar with a stem could be nearly for free, does it not make more sense to buy a 2nd hand handlebar than designing and printing a new bracket? 2. Theft What is the theft rate where you live? Hope you can keep your special decision for a long time! Thanks for sharing, keep it up!
Thanks for sharing your experience of converting a single speed to a multi speed bike. I was suprised to see the special challenges that you had to over come. Great info. Cheers.
Good work. But you have one front gear and 6 in the back? Shifting through all those gears in the back will cause the chain to bend and it would cause premature wear, grinding noises, clunky shifting and maybe even snapping of chain.
I purchased 6 speed gear kit- freewheel and derailleur is from vanum with shimano 7speed rapid fire shifter plus gear chain, now I am facing same problem with chain, gear chain is thinner so I have to sand or file down the chain ring. Angle grinder reduces your efforts but increases your chances to make mistakes but filing is peace of mind just because it reduced work speed....! I will share my experience if I face any more problems.....!
I feel like im looking into the mirror because this is pretty much the same adventure im going through right now although still at an early state since im unable to remove the damn single-fly wheel and crankset/chain ring, idk how you managed to do so without the dedicated tools but im also no cyclist, i just wanna convert my cycle to a decent multi-speed one instead of the crappy installation and parts the local bike shops in india/Pakistan offer. I also want a wider gears range than the generic 11-24t 6speed the local market has (thatd an estimation)
Hey usually the wheel won't be centred if you haven't changed the hub. You'll have to offset the break pads with extra spacers on one side and remove spacers on the other side. Also play with the brake caliper tension
I want to convert my busted schwinn scrambler into an ebike and the 20" cheap kits have gears on the hub so I'm wanting to add gear selection as well.. anyway I'm sure it can be done with persistence
One thing I noted is how he used, Yonex badminton/tennis racquet grips for the handlebar grips. I used it too on my bike when I was in school many many years ago.
Wow! You really know how to make simple things complicated..... but great attempt. Btw, I'm a bike enthusisast & planning to make my doodhwala bicycle to a geared one soon, except that grinding teeth part. And even 4 gears are better than none.
Ideally yes, to do it the correct way change the hub of the rear wheel to one which can hold a gear cassette. But building the wheel again at home is a hard job. You can still use existing hub but it's a bit of a hacky way. Not durable for long term use
RJ the bike guy tutorial on fitting the cassette to the single speed frame, huh? That dude has a tutorial for everything! Lol. The build looks great! How's it doing a year in?
It's doing pretty good, needs more frequent maintenance though. The black paint I had sprayed on wore out and made the chain quite messy. Shifting and other things have been perfect
I had this idea some years ago. And i though about all your problems and how to solve. What i didnt know was the shifter and how to make the space bigger. Too bad i modified aluminum bikes.
Usually not possible without changing the rear hub, since 1x8 gear set don't come as freewheels. You'll need to switch the hub to a cassette compatible one
@@chinmayshalawadi1 Not at all. 8 gear freewheels do exist. However you need an even thinner chain with that freewheel so you have to file some more away then 😂
I'm planning to get this done. Is it better to have 6/7 gears or install the crankset as well to make it 21 speed? What do you suggest? Any reason why you did not do it?
This was just an experiment and my cycle had a very cheap crank and a very old style bottom bracket. I would have had to replace the bottom bracket and the whole crankset. It would have gotten too expensive. If your city is very hilly then get 21 speed, else 6-7 speed will be enough
I watched lot of videos to put gears in cycle .and i always have some questions . Thnx for making this video ,this video is real truth about installing gear in gearless cycle now i realise that putting gears is not ok in normal cycle
Dude it's pretty normal and simple process..for professionals... he made the whole process so complicated and mind-heated Just go to shop and let them do 'Their' job
Not sure about electric bicycle. It will have additional complexity of electrical wires and motor on the rear wheel. You can probably do it but, you'll have to research a lot
Great work. You mentioned problem which no other youtuber did. Besides, there aren't any videos on turning a single speed into a 8 speed. You helped me a lot. I was just wondering to know if the ride has become easier in uphill? And doesn't the derailleur get stuck in the wheel while you're on the 1st gear?!
very useful information overall👍🏻...it’s really helpful for someone looking to restore/alter the bicycle on their own.....and hats off to ur efforts on learning 3D printing just for getting it perfect😍
The 3d printing ,man that's a great skill, you couldve drilled a hole through the handle bar or added a hose clamp and drilled the hose clamp,the wheel needs to be re aligned or also known as "dished"which basically moves the wheel position to one side more then the other,it is done with a wheel spoke/nipple' tool or an adjustable wrench and by oiling the spoke and nipple thread junctions before doing so,that way the axle will also benefit in giving you more thread on both sides of the axel bolts, check your wheel spokes afterward because some will protrude out of the nipple thread junctions so you may need to file them down afterward,also check your wheel rim holes maybe add duct/pipe tape as a rim liner,to prevent a rim puncture✌
You were really honest. I liked that. After watching this video I decided to buy a geared cycle instead of modifying a gearless cycle. But I wondered why didn't you buy a new chain which was thicker enough to fit your front chain wheel instead of scrapping off the thickness? What if you get a thick chain next time when the present chain is over used? Any way lot of things you have done. I would have left this project at the first challenge itself 😂😂😂✋👍🏿
You should have added 5-6 ring in your old chain and that may worked fine ! I am planning to change my frog cycle from single speed cassette to 7 speed 12-28 ... I have ordered Betwin cassette, derailleur , shifter and chain from decathlon.
It's awesome to learn new things. And you really should understand all aspects of your bike,however after cost of parts and time spent I'm sure just buying a multi speed bicycle would of been cheaper and easier.

Make sure to paint the exposed chainring with some good paint. A spray paint won't work well.
