Description
5-speed freewheel for foreign "Bike" bicycles
5-speed bicycle freewheel (14–28T, threaded mount)
Threaded 5-speed freewheel for installation on the rear hub of road, touring, city, and folding bicycles. The unit combines a set of driven sprockets and a freewheel mechanism (ratchet). It screws directly onto the rear hub thread and ensures precise gear shifting in 5-speed drivetrains.
Key Advantages and Features:
- Classic gear range (14–28T): The optimal set of teeth provides a comfortable gear selection for both dynamic riding on flat roads and long climbs.
- Standard threaded mount: Easily screws onto any classic rear hub with a standard right-hand threaded seat.
- Durable steel construction: The sprockets are made of hardened wear-resistant steel with a protective coating resistant to corrosion and chain wear.
- Wide compatibility: Suitable for restoring Soviet retro classics (HVZ "Tourist", "Sputnik", "Start-Shosse") and modern 5-speed city/folding bikes.
Compatibility with Bicycles and Hubs:
- HVZ (Kharkiv Bicycle Plant) bicycles: "Tourist", "Sputnik", "Start-Shosse", "Sport".
- Road, city, and folding bicycles: Any models with a 5-speed drivetrain and a threaded rear hub (Shimano, Falcon, Shunfeng, etc.).
- Compatible chains: Narrow 5–6–7 speed bicycle chains (1/2" x 3/32").
