Title: Cassette or Freecoaster?
Post by: crightonk on July 20, 2009, 02:04 PM
Bought a set of early metal hubbed tuffs last week and the seller neglected to tell me that the rear freecoaster and bearing ring if thats what its called was split, does anyone have any of these bits lying around or know where I can get them or probably best a full kit.
Any help would be much appreciated :wink:

I don't think that's a freecoaster to be honest matey, I think that's the early cassette type hub.

Reckon replacement bits are gonna be pretty thin on the ground, sadly, but you never know what someone on here will have in their box of spares!

All the best,
