Yes you can either drill the hub out & find a replacement freewheel alloy hub, or don't drill it & fit a freecoaster, or swap it  :daumenhoch:

Cheaper here Rick.........

These are a bit different, the one I was talking about are the coaster/freecoaster freewheel, so you can use it as a coaster or a freecoaster, but this is another option & I think a bit neater  8)

The tuff on my kid's GT is a converted coaster, brake shims/slips have been removed and also the arm on the left of the wheel, now a freecoaster :daumenhoch:
