Hi, not much more too say really. im after a smaller freewheel.

im pretty much spinning up all the way to work when the nottingham roads flatten out. currently running 42-17. any help would be great!

i don't think you'll find standard thread freewheels in size smaller than 16t. smaller ones are usually made in half size thread as found on bmx. why not put a bigger chainring in front and solve the issue in an easier way :-)

ah thanks! i did think chainring initially, just trying to even out both sides of a flippidy flop hub. going from 42-15 fixed to 42-17 on the freewheel is not fun. thanks for the advice though, i'll just up the fixed to a 17 and look for a 45/46 chainring instead. 'wanted: 45/46T 130bcd chainring' haha.

if I was you 48:17 would be my choice for mostly flat areas with a few milder hills

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
