Juan Manuel Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Hi, A friend of mine is about to buy a new freewheel and we were both wondering about some things. In Argentina we have no option rather than shipping trials parts from abroad because there aren't any trials specific shop here. We can get Echo, Zhi and some other brands parts "cheap" from some small dealers. If we wanted to get a Monty (for example) freewheel it wold be far more expensive (because we would have to order from some other dealer). I have this two questions: #1 Do you believe Echo freewhels are good compaired to others? Why? Is it worth spending in other freewheels? #2 Are there so many diferences between echo TR and SL freewheels (exept from 72/108 engaging points)? Are they made out from different materials? Thank you in advance, Juan Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Beach Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 I think SLs and TRs are some of the best on the Market from what I've heard about them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeanuckleJive Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Loads of people say you can't beat the echo SL. I'm getting one within a few weeks and I reckon it'll be perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty-james Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Ive got an Echo TR and its great value for money. Ive heard, and im sure you have too from all over the forums, that Echo SL freewheels are amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mods Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 my try-all 108.9 skipped every now and then and my zhi is amazingly un even. As in in it tightnens an loosens the chain a lot on every rotation. My next freewheel without a doubt will be the echo sl or ti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
315r Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 I just have a poll opened in trial chat about this isue. My Try-all after a year skip a lot with a big "CLAAAK!!" but when it was new skip a little bit to. In the poll the best is the Echo SL. I'll go for Echo SL this week end.

N.Wood Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 SL if you can afford it, but the TRs are really good too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
