C_T_C monty Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 (edited) Hello all,I’m having trouble deciding on running front disc with a new front wheel build or running front white industries ENO freewheel with echo forged cranks? I thought I should ask you guys before I decided because I’ve never ran front disc or front freewheel before so I was just wondering what would improve my ride more?Cheers for all the help,Charlie Edited March 26, 2007 by C_T_C monty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your freewheel skips like an underage schoolgirl. Buy a tensile, they're pretty ace, and you'll save yourself a few quid Edit : You'll need to go FFW and buy a fixed rear sprocket . Just realised bud Sorted : Onza screw on = tenner.Cranks = 52 quidFreewheel = 35 Edited April 6, 2007 by deanie-b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 Might be easier for us to decide if you told us what current setup you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 i'd recomend ffw the increase in engagements will improve your riding+probably confidence 'cause a better fw is less likely to skip/you pick up the next e.p faster so you get away with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanie-b Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 Might be easier for us to decide if you told us what current setup you have?Try-all rear hubAcs clawTry all 24T cranks ( the ones with the chainring welded on? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 Go for the freewheel then!More ground clearance, better engagement = less chance of your chain snapping plus it makes the bike more responsive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
