Does anybody have access to a variety of freewheels?
My back wheel is a mavic elipse and have been using a cheap dicta freewheel with it. Nothing wrong with the dicta except that it makes a clunky noise.
I tried to upgrade to a simano freewheel, but have found that when screwed on, there is not enough clearance. It juts out as far as the inside track nuts, whereas the dicta one has plenty of clearance.
Am using 1/8th chain.
So are all quality freewheels the same as the shimano? Which has more clearance? Would going to a 3/32nd freewheel give me more clearance?
Thanks keith
