Did they exist?

Fancy giving this fixed gear lark a go at minimum £££ by rebuilding a mtb. But can only see 36h DMR revolvers on ebay. Did anyone make a 32h hub?

Just buy a 120 tracker hub and the spacers.

Also sack off the fixed free and get a fixed fixed as freehubs still fit.

Edit: get that surly it's probably cheaper all in.

Velo solo do 6 bolt sprockets that fit on disc hubs so you could has an SS kit on the FH and a fixed sprocket on the disc side of a normal 135 QR cassette hub...

This is what I'd be doing, very easy way of doing it.

Old mtb
Ss frameset with horizontal dropouts or eccentric bb?
Chaintension might be an issue otherwise

I considered that, but if I get along with it then the plan was to run one of these on the freehub threads

which apparently is the same dinensions/thread as a freewheel.

Sliding (well, swinging) dropouts on my el-mariachi.

Just buy a 120 tracker hub and the spacers.
chainline (or brake with the arai adapter) would be out by 7.5mm each side.

Et voilà
Surly prices though, that's champagne, my budget's more White Lightning on a park bench. I could buy a new rim for less than the cost difference to a NOS DMR.
