Dicta freewheels -pos or a cheap alternative?
Retrodan72:
I always use Dicta's Ant, but I'm a cheapskate, never had any issues, but I only ever do the pub rides, so not too much punishment. :LolLolLolLol:

I've had Dictas fail - I couldn't recommend them for riding. I got a nice chrome Sturmey Archer one a few months ago :daumenhoch:

Fair enough mate, I do tend to pack mine with grease before a ride though to be honest. :daumenhoch:
