ogre Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 (edited) If your on a budget go buy an ACS claw there usually prety reliable + cheap if they go boom. I'd suggest buying an eno or tryall, their both expenisve but there uber good quality, especially the eno because you can replace all the components if you manage to kill anything on it the tryall just has awesome engagements 108(which is more engagements than everything else on the market), meaning you get an engagement every 3 degrees although a few people have had problems with them skipping like a bitch. If you've not got the budget go for a tensile, there awesome value + such. Edited May 2, 2007 by ogre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ogre Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Acs for the rear because won't the others come loose on the back?no, the koxx has the lockring at the back doesn't it so it can't undo, and the eno is magic*+doesn't undo** *not all eno's are magic**some will undo or come loose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leigh_verner Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 Simple if you want to be safe and not have serious problems and injurys when you are riding DO NOT BUY A ACS FREEWHEEL pay your money and be safe ,I mean do really want to gamble your health and pay less or would you pay your money and have super engament and many many points of engagement and 9 pawls rather then 4 and ride safley without face planting some thing.....its your choice......

NileBrown™ Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 i have had a bad one because it slipped and i face plantted the wall so i would'nt recomend an acs free wheel. try and get a tryall markHiwas that a ACS welded may I ask ? as I had a standard one and that keep skipping because the lockring came loose all the time. But then I bought an ACS welded and I ran it for about 2 months and didn't skip once. I have a Try-all at the moment and i'm loving that so I agree , get a try-all.Nile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boswell Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 (edited) I think some people are getting confused, do you only want a back freewheel or would you consider getting a front one? Edited May 3, 2007 by mr ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManxTrialSpaz Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 Go front Granted it can eat you as the drive disengages at the cranks opposed to at the wheel, but you can have a nicer/more manageable gear ratio and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex_jsy Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 mate i would really recommend switching to front freewheel, may cost a bit but it gives you a decent gear ratiospeaking about freewheels id say go for a tensile but if you've got the cash you cant go wrong with an enoeither way stay away from dicta's...mine lasted a record of 5 skiphops!
