Hi there,
For anyone that has one of these i-Motion freewheel hubs, can they confirm that the only difference between the “disc” and “freewheel” version, is the little dust cover on the non drive side?
That is, the freewheel version actually has a disc mount — but is just covered over by the dust cover. And you coould just take the cover off, and install a disc brake?

yes, you can do this, there are thread holes behind the cover
