What no of teeth do I need on my freewheel?

<< < (2/2)

brettypeeps:


Compare left and right hand side of rear hub :daumenhoch:

There is quite a size difference so should be quite obvious but if you are going for a 16 teeth you wont go far wrong.  :4_17_5:

Tuffs have the larger size

Threaders:
Hub only has a thread on one side and looks to be the smaller version. I normaly get stuff on here or the bay as my local bike shop only do cheapo parts.


Glad I asked the question before just going ahead and buying one. Ive already had a nightmare getting a 28tpi bb for this build (1mancity2 helped me out on that) how about the suntour 17t freewheel??
Cheers, Jonathan :daumenhoch:

It is definately the larger on.  if it was my money I would go for one of these and stick to a 16 teeth  or else you will be pedalling quite fast.

Both of them will fit your tuffs :daumenhoch:

Cheers brettypeeps. Just seen a second hand shimano mx30 for 15 quid, so might get that.
Thanks for your help and advice :daumenhoch:
