Now, go easy on poor old Zack. I would love to see him up in the High Country of Colorado. Man, can you see someone like him trying to ride something really tough like Mt. Evans or Pike's Peak?

You could try to find a Specialized P.Fix rear hub, which has a 10T bolt on cog. Beware, the axles are 14MM. Or you could buy the whole bike if you find one, should be pretty cheap.
