flas12345 Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 if your only looking to spend around the £40 mark then yes the tensile will be a perfect choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 It's betwene the tensile and the monty if that's your budget.The monty will have a few more EP's, you won't be able to get spares for it and I doubt it's built to be maintained.The tensile on the otherhand has only a few less EP's, you can get spares for, and you can take it apart and work on it.The main problem is that a number of the tensile's have had problems with the lockrings coming loose like on ACS freewheels, if this has been sorted out i'd say tensile definatley.

Razzy Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 I'd go with what Jake1516 said. I have one and personally I think they are great. I think it would be a safer choice aswell as if you manage to knacker a Tensile freewheel, then you are in a much better position to replace parts and work on it. I find it very strong and sturdy however, and don't think you will ever really break one and be in a position where it needs to be replaced.
