peggysue Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 its been a couple of weeks since i got a secondhand bike and started getting back into trials. ive been out about 7 or 8 times and just on my way home when my freewheel slipped and lost all drive. all my mates have used this freewheel for a long time with no problems and mine did not last much more than a weeks worth of riding. anyone advise a much stronger freewheel? or can my tryall 108.9 be fixed?

Little Yoshi Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I got my try-all of Ross McD second hand and mines running perfictly. Best freewheel i have ever had.By the sounds of things your pawls have been f**ked. It can be fixed. Take the free wheel of your cranks and take the face off it. Then see wat bits can be salvaged like the springs and pins. Then buy the replacement ones and put all back together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus you cant buy replacment springs etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Wood Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I have taken them off a good few times.And have a look. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/search.php?category_id=65The Try-All freewheels are wlded and you can't undo the lockring. They are called pawls not pins. White Industries ENO spares are what you linked, not Try-All ones. They are not all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry about that. But thanks for clearing that up.Yeah know there called pawls but thought they were seprate from the pin but its all one bit. Sorry about that again.

peggysue Posted July 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 cant see any spares for it on tartys.... you sure you have the tryall? im gonna take mine off in the morning just to check it but ive not heard that its repairable though...just read your last post ,,, no worries dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest itstroy08 Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 try this, i did this before buying a try-all 108.9.Get off your bike, have your cranks level, and kick down like your kick starting a motorbike, and it should connect, just make sure you boot it.99% of the time worked with my old one.

peggysue Posted July 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 thanks to my mate ogre, i will be meeting him tomorrow to get an eno freewheel off him. however he tells me that there is a brass thread saver still stuck in the freewheel. ive never seen one of these and im guessing its screwed into the freewheel. somehow i got to get it out and ogre reckons a hacksaw and a bit of TLC will get it off. has anyone here had one of these or know exactly what im up against? until i see it tomorrow im not sure myself ....would like a bit of advice to get a headstart...cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
