Hi there,
I'm looking into converting a 7 speed rear cassette Pendleton Somerby bicycle for my wife. Do you know any reseller in europe or better in the uk?
Many thanks,
Daniel

Hi Daniel and(https://i.imgur.com/evDSMvT.png)to the forum.
Have you tried contacting any of the GM dealers shown on the Dealer Listing (https://www.goldenmotor.com/contact/dealer.html) to see if they have stock?
If your wife's bike has a 7 speed splined cassette:

you will also need to purchase a suitable thread on freewheel to fit the threaded boss on the Smart Pie's hub.
The cassette has a splined locknut which secures the cassette to the freehub and rotates with the sprockets:

Whereas the freewheel has the removal splines on the inside of the freewheel unit which is fixed to the wheel:

If you are not sure which type you have, Click here (https://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help/determining-cassette-freewheel-type) for further information.
