Bliv Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Has anyone used the 72 engagement Rockman freewheel? One of the few available freewheels in my area and I can get a good deal on one, wondering if it is worth it for a novice/intermediate rider.

Stan Shaw Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) They aren't the same if that's what your thinking... The new Echo FW's do set the standard though imo, especially the SL one. To the opening post, the Rockman FW's are decent like Al says, especially worth it if you can get a cheaper one. They are pretty reliable too. Edited January 18, 2010 by Stan Shaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bliv Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Thanks guys, The echo's are no doubt nice but I'm on a budget to finish my build and the rockman looks like it will be just fine for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
