(oo) I just put a new chain on my bike and, like the fellow who complained his new chain was slipping, needed to replace the freewheel at the same time. They seem to wear together, and if you replace one because of excessive wear, you have to replace the other. I think the only folks who could get around this would be people who use several freewheels at different times on the same bike. Thought I'd try a 6-speed gear this time, replacing my old 21/14 5-speed gear with a 24/13 job, to be used with a 52/40 chainwheel. I'll post a review after I've put some miles on it. It'll be interesting to see what it's like to ride in a 108" gear. -- Bob Fishell ihnp4!ihu1g!fish
