I was glad of the 57", 49", and 40" low gears just now (cruising is 69") on
my brief (too damn' cold and windy) 12 mile errand ride which on return
involved 4 miles of uphill against a 28 mph wind gusting to 38 -- mid 30s.
(OTOH, I reached speeds outbound that I am usually not capable of.)
Riv con
I listed a few $1 auctions on ebay. Included there is a NEW Sachs-Aris
8-speed freewheel body. If you are running 135mm Phil FW hub, this might
be just the thing. No cogs, though. I bought the freewheel new and took
the cogs and the spacers for various 7-speed Aris freewheel projects.
