Is it possible to run this as a single speed, even possibly with a fixed cog?

Not sure bout fixed cog due to having to thread it on. but single speed is possible

Yes, just find the same arbor sized accessory wheel at 6" diameter and you're set. Keep in mind it's not variable speed so you're stuck at 1 speed...albeat a awesome-fast/smooth speed.

absolutely...but you may need to weld both sides though and/or use a circular motion and highest current setting. May need to play around with wire feed speed as well. I'd practice on some scraps first...

Not possible with any hub I know of. You need a chain or belt-driven drive train to use a multi-speed hub.

the simple answer is no . it can be done with out a computer , but quite frankly , you would spend more money doing it than buying a good quality DC motor with a gear head reducer . using 5 relays in a frustrated loop , taking the logic from the first and third relay of the loop , and 2 power relays in a bipolar configuration ... you can use capitors in paralelle with the frustrated loop coils , to slow the loops cycle speed ... to speed it up , use 5 varable resistor across all 5 of the the capacitors . what i have discribed will cost a good deal more than a arduino controller , and give you only 5% speed change if you are extremely careful the simple answer is no . it can be done with out a computer , but quite frankly , you would spend more money doing it than buying a good quality DC motor with a gear head reducer . using 5 relays in a frustrated loop , taking the logic from the first and third relay of the loop , and 2 power relays in a bipolar configuration ... you can use capitors in paralelle with the frustrated loop coils , to slow the loops cycle speed ... to speed it up , use 5 varable resistor across all 5 of the the capacitors . what i have discribed will cost a good deal more than a arduino controller , and give... » Read More the simple answer is no . it can be done with out a computer , but quite frankly , you would spend more money doing it than buying a good quality DC motor with a gear head reducer . using 5 relays in a frustrated loop , taking the logic from the first and third relay of the loop , and 2 power relays in a bipolar configuration ... you can use capitors in paralelle with the frustrated loop coils , to slow the loops cycle speed ... to speed it up , use 5 varable resistor across all 5 of the the capacitors . what i have discribed will cost a good deal more than a arduino controller , and give you only 5% speed change if you are extremely careful « Show Less

Yes you can, with dimmer if you want. Otherwise, a direct control from the wall would give you one speed velocity.

Yes, you would just set it to =120. It can be used to operate other tools too, but it does go pretty fast.

Yes. Changing the mode will allow for a "pulsating" mode and turning the knob will alter the speed.

never tried it ,motors are DC should be possible. Safety first E mail factory!

If you want N speed it has to be wired. Otherwise, it won't work without manually changing to G speed and that cuts your max speed in half.

No typically a one wheel machines can not. We do a dual wheel that can check it out FirstPitch Curve

I have not tried it but I am almost sure you cannot. You would need a drill with a huge torque and very low rpm. When you crank you are probably around 20 - 60 rpm at most. An electric drill would not give you the necessary torque at that speed. Also you need to hold the handle up while cranking to disengage the wheel lock.

not exactly...this is a 14 tooth (small cog) which means your top speed will be different and it is possible that some of the intermediate cogs could have different tooth counts also. Plus you want to make sure you have a thread on hub as this is. (screws on and off). If yours isn't a screw on then you need a "cassette" type.

It's still a free wheeled system. Fixie is a bad name for it. It should just say single speed. All it does is provide spacers and a lock ring for a cassette, along with a cog. So in short, no, not fixed.

You can probably use the on off switch, but you wouldn't be able to control the speed.

No, unfortunately this is not possible. Its very low in 3 wheeled model... and make it up only in 2 wheel mode

Should be OK assuming current is not too fast since steering capability is limited.
