The Freeliner has been patiently waiting in the garage while I’ve been working on Outkast, so today I gave it some love and fitted the wheel set.
I thought I would need to buy a freewheel for the Sturmey hub but discovered the 18t ACS one I removed from my Kos last year fitted perfectly. The other bonus was the freewheel uses a narrow 3/32 chain to suit the chainrings on the crank I am using. I’ll be even more surprised if my plans are successful for a 3 speed klunker using a front derailleur to change chainrings with the rear derailleur working only as a tensioner.
I’ll get more done on it during the week as I need to rush to mow the lawn before the next downpour.
