Keep spraying WD in it regular & you will find it will last loads longer. :P White industries are suppose to be one of the best but you can get several ACS for that sort of money. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houseface Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 go for the acs claw(welded) if you have a small budget but if you have aenough go for the eno white industries one steve. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Smith! Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 Go for an ENO if you can afford, but if you’re a bit tight on the money just get an ACS, and get it welded if it keeps coming loose Mat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvtrial Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 White industries is definately the best, but I'm using ACS myself! I can't tell you anything that's bad with that freewheel but White industries has many more engagement points so it's a lot better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 Keep spraying WD in it regular & you will find it will last loads longer. Dunno about that (Y) Mine eno's fine. It's lasted comming up to a years and i have now had to replace the pawls. So basicly they don't brake, things just get worn down as you could expect, as ACS caluse's usualy brake befor it gets to that point. With an acs cluse thought, a little bit of glue on the threds will do they job if you can't afford one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BASETA26ER Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 enos are the best but too be fair acs claws are fine for trials with a bit of weld around the lockring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Oliver Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 Fed up with my freewheels not lasting more than 2 weeks, are these white industries worth the money. My local bike shop has one in the cabinet priced at £86. :P Would like to hear from someone who has used one for a good while. Cheer's Sam. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
