I mean 60 or 96Which ones then guys ... c'mon i really want to order it tonight so it will be on its way tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials owns Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 (edited) Sorry typo. I mean 60 or 96 i have got 60 click and it is nice for the money and loudish for a 60 click, if your it to that sort of thing!. cant say much about the 96 click because haven't used it.

Kenny--Trials Posted May 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 (edited) Ok thanks. I think i will go for the 96 click (Im going to do a laurence--Trials) because its lighter and the 60 click one has positive feedback so the 96 click will probably be better. Thanks everyone!

Matthew_Gibson Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 id stick with the tensile matey, looked after right will be sweet, by lookin after it i mean makin sure the chain aint too tight, will rape the bearing. good spray of gt85 every other month should keep it running nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dann2707 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 How long have you had it for? Is it loud? The tensile freewheel is louder than the Monty one iirc from my mate having them both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsmax04 Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 I have a 96 click tensile, never gone wrong on me. Good solid loud engagement. just makesure you service it to get rid of the greese as it makes them skip (like any freewheel). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 Be patient and wait. The Echo SL is worth it. The Tensile is a broken shadow in comparison. June is only a week away. I'm sure you can hold out on riding for that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theom Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 My tensile 96 click was pure dump, had a 60click and it was miles better but i would definately wait till tarty get the sl's back in stock, best freewheels ever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bingle-anator Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 (edited) Mate of mine runs a Monty, seems pretty solid.

ben_travis Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 get an ACS....forever reliable. in other news the echo TR is pretty sweet too in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Echo TR and SL are safe bets, I have been a chris king rider for the past 6 years and now have an SL and it is VERY good!! Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konstant Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 My 60 Click tensile died in 3 months. Now replaced with a Rockman 72 click which has already started skipping. Wait and get the SL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
