Brisa Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Hey, I run freewheels on both mod and stock now so was wondering if anything came of these tensile freewheels? There was a lot of hype about them a good few months ago and a suspected release date but did anything ever get released? I know they were to have around 60 ep's but were they sealed bearing like eno or a load of balls like the ACS :blink: Anyone know anything about these?

JT! Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 They were suposed to have 48 ep. And some sort of guarentee. And cost about £40. They were suposed to have come out in december, but they didn't. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotchDave Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 I just called super cycles, apparently they weren't happy with it, so are still working on it. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisa Posted February 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 You serious? :blink: I phoned them around 4.07 on my way home from college. "Tensile freewheel mate, nah. Nothing like that exists. We got Tensile cranks man..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartridge Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 - 6 pawls - 30 tooth ratchet - Pawls offset into threes, giving 60 engagement points - Fully user serviceable, in fact user servicing encouraged (very easy to do - I had one apart and back together in the office within a few minutes) - Loose ball bearing design like the ACS claws - All parts available seperately - Price estimated £50 inc. 2 year materials/workmanship guarantee (if you break an individual part, you get it replaced free - but you have to fit it yourself) Still work in progress - as you know, Onza now dont release things til theyre happy with them :blink: I think thats all...

ScotchDave Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Sounds good, how do you adjust bearings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartridge Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Same style as ACS... except its an opposite thread, specific to cranks (rather than using it on a hub), so it keeps itself tight :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartridge Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 I wouldn't have said 'a lot of the design'... probably more like Paul said. Most ideas are run past us though, and we do have a significant amount of input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
