0zzy Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 ive ended up bending one of the teeth on my freewheel, do i risk bending it back or leaving it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 I'd say heat it right up then bend it back extremely gently. It'll be safer with one missing tooth than one that might direct the chain off the cog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another option could be that you just file the tooth so it is smaller than the others but has no bend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewRockCowboy Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Your prob best just attempting to file it back into shape, or simply just buy a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
