TrialZonn Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 (edited) This moring I received mt order from tarty and decided to fix my tensile freewheel...It was opened,I haden't removed the pawls ,I only changed the springs...I pput the freewheel alltogether and added a little super glue to the lockring's threads (because I use the ff freewheel with a rear hub)so not to loosen itself again and fell apart.But then I saw that the freewheel was engaging in the opposite direction!!!Where I did the mistake?What should I do now?I have the freewheel opened in front of me...Thanks.

Muel Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Sounds like you put the rachet ring race thingy on the wrong way, best get it open and find out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrialZonn Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 (edited) I just opened it.I don't believe it.I can't find what's wrong.If I put the outer teeth in the other direction then the freewheel not engages at all.The springs ang the pawls are all ok in excellent condition and put in the right place...

Muel Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Are you sure it was engaging the wrong way in the first place?The pawls and springs can only go in one way, and you should be able to figure out which way the outer teeth on from that.

TrialZonn Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Oh I just found my mistake...The freewheel was engaging with the springs.An that because I had put the pawls between the one and other side of the spring and they could engage.They were just pushing the springs and the springs were engaging the freewheel...So I understood now..But how must I put the freewheel together again?Fisrt pu the pawls and the springs,keep them compressed and add the outer teeth?or put the outer teeth and then the springs?

Muel Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 I don't think it really matters, I normally put the outer teeth on, then put the pawls in, then keep the springs compressed with a pair of pliers and slip them in by holding the pawl out of the way with a small screwdriver.
