Does anyone know if a lock ring AND a cogset from a Record Pista hub would fit this old Campy freewheel hub?

I am trying to use a single cogset on the hub to store a bike (and hold the chain with it), not to ride it!!!

Thanks!

Any fixed cog or single freewheel will thread on to an english thread freewheel hub.

The track lockring won't. It's reverse thread, and too small too.

But you don't really need anything on there to hold a chain... just the hub.
The axle will be plenty effective as a chain holder.

Why worry? go down to the local bike shop and ask them for an old freewheel that they are throwing away and use that. You won't be able to ride it but that's not what youwant with it anyway. There are still plenty of bikes being sold that use a 7sp freewheel.

single cog freewheels are cheap, any shop should have
them, or can get them for like $10-15 but make sure
you get one for a road chain, 3/32 width.

Note that fixed cogs come in two thicknesses. The real "track"
thickness is for a chain that is 1/8" wide, or for a road cog that is 3/32"

hub threading:
Iso threading is standard english: 1.37" x 24 tpi (same as an english tread bb lockring)
Italian thread would be marked: 35 mm x 24 tpi
