TrialZonn Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 Yes you should consider the Tensile freewheels too...top quality,mine has never skipped (I changed the internal springs only one time through 1,5 year of using it). If not, I would say that you should trust the echo SL.. That's what I would do if I were you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cahill Trials Kid Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Sorry if this is stealing your thread abit, but has anyone else got anything good or bad to say about the Tensile 96 click freewheel ? Cheers Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Mine was fine, really. Started skipping a little bit, but I got bullied into buying an SL freewheel and it's just that bit better. In SL freewheel news, there's a new ti version... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Which bit is ti? Sounds good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filo Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 The "new" echo can be good, but it hasn't been used enough to say it's as reliable as the eno. amen brother Just be aware with an Eno that they aren't at all a 'fit and forget' item. I found with mine I had to service it pretty regularly otherwise it got gunked up and started skipping, then as soon as it starts skipping it canes the springs meaning you need to get a new set of them, too. I just found mine to be a bit too much hassle to really bother with. i know what your saying,i pulled mine apart after a big ride in the rain,the lock ring came loose and it was full of crap(grit and dust).i cleanened it out put some graphite powder in there,that was about 7 months ago and its been fine since. i found my seals werent in properly,i yhink thats how it got full of crap. it doesnt bother me,i like to tinker with my bike from time to time.

Mark W Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Which bit is ti? Sounds good. Think it's the base/core part of it, then the lockring or something like that. Can't remember what Ads said. I think all the new Echo shit's up on echobike.com, potentially. Got some really interesting new bits for 2010. EDIT: It is - to quote Deng: Titanium SL freewheel has Titanium base & cap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 The "new" echo can be good, but it hasn't been used enough to say it's as reliable as the eno. Ali's been running his SL for 9 months or so, or something like that. A long time anyway, and absolutely no problems with it. I don't think we've had any back with problems either, and we sold out of our entire stock of them when they first came out - there are lots out there, and very few issues with them, if any. I wouldn't say that was the case with the Eno... Echo site seems to be down at the mo. Works for me - sounds stupid, but you've got the address in right?

Nope, definitely not working here at the moment... might be something funny with the Uni server I guess. Will try tonight from home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
