i was just wondering, if any body has tried out the new try-all free wheel with 105 engagement points i was thinking for fifty quid it cant be much good, please tell me your views on it !

hi, 50 quid is a fair amount for one, i have read a few other threads on this subject and i think if u can spend 50 quid on a free wheel and u like the look of it u will be getting a good one.

they start at a fiver on ebay mate, my mod had a 20 quid on eon and it is doing the job (Y)

It's got 108.3 ^_^ .

Well, I'm sure thats what it has anyway :ermm: .

Be reet, lots of people on the forum have them, and seem quite pleased, once you can get it onto the crank, some people had problems.

But for 50 quid, it's not like there crap, there just open bearings? I think.

It's called 108.9 :P 9 pawls, 108 clicks. They are open bearing. Will won't tell me how his runs, but CBProds said he made it skip twice. TRA killed his, and it sounded a bit ropey in his vid, although that's not a great indicator I guess. Other alternatives are the Tensile and the Eno, but just searching should yield a whole load of results (Y)

While I admit mine has 'skipped,' it hasn't when i've been doing anything proper, and even if is does, the next engagement is so close you don't really notice. Bang on for £50 but hassle to fit in my experiance.......

For those who are counting it's done it 2 times aswell....

Yeah, I think ACS Claws and Dictas are the only freewheels I've used that when they've skipped haven't gone in at the next EP. One of the benefits of more engagement points. Should be interesting seeing how they hold up though, just 'cos when high EP freewheels skip, the shallowness of the ratchets tends to lead to shaving the point off the pawls, reducing their life.

From my experience, at least...

Just recently bought a tensile freewheel :-

They are amazing and only selling for £35 thats a bargin if you ask me.

But these Try-All freewheels sound good to just for an extra £15 so I dont know if i should of got one of those :Slol,but I am happy with the tensile's performance so far (Y)

So, have you even used one yourself?

'a video of a bloke'

:rolleyes:

let's see this video. Then I won't think your full of shit.

Clarify yourself somewhat more please, 'it snapped' is not a very good indication as to what happened, what snapped? a pawl? rat-shit? Spring?

EDIT: f**k it, I suppose that's a post typical of a new member.

Haven't had much of a chance yet. There was an issue with the dudes from Taiwan not making the body correctly, so it meant that for one engagement it only engaged on one pawl, which isn't what I'd call ideal. Just waiting for a non-messed up one to turn up (Y)

that soumds mint m8 (Y) i think in up 4 1 of them do u no wen ther r being relest ;)

The 96 click freewheel is more "comp orientated" i think so it won't be as strong as the 60 click one since more material is taken away it is likely to snap on the ring bit(no idea what it's called, but it's where all the teeth are) no idea when it's out (your probably better getting a tryall/60 click tensile now)

:D

- on the TRA breaking one front I remember TRA posting later in that thread saying it was a manufacturing defect or something - rather than the fault of the design.
