Mat Smith! Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 (edited) Profile is a freehub, advantages of not having to fiddle with a freewheel etc.Also, more engagements than an ACS, but then theres the ENO which has more I think, so it's just which ever you like really....Mat Edited December 24, 2005 by mattyboy_69_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
