Thats sick, a freewheel right in your bb. Is there more teeth in the back? So you know, i can pedal the bike and ride it?
y don't they have it like a regular bike? Freewheel on the rear.. Is there an advantage to having the rear fixed and the frontfreewheel?
20" trials bikes run 18-12 gearing, its cheaper as you just buy a fixed hub (£60), 12t screw on driver (£10) and an 18t screw freewheel (£20), and means ur not forking out for a new drive system for your hub every 6 months. itd also mean that if you were fitting an 18t freewheel on the back, you'd need a bigger sprocket on the front which obviously isnt a good idea for trials with the weight and sprocket impacts etc. also looks cool

the rear wheel usualy runs on a 12 tooth fixed screw on sprocket. if its a 18 tooth freewheel on the crank. ive built a few. good way of gerin ur drive system all comact.

I want to see a bike company integrate a rear hub cassette into a bottom bracket so that we can have a multi-pawl system rather than a freewheel, also to increase the cog tooth options. That would be trick.
rim breaks hold the wheel perfectly still, where as disks, normally however powerfull sometimes slip, & is you miss a lege or rail & clip your disk you are gona bend it prety badly, tbh i think its just personal prefernece tho :S

my mate has one on his trials bike they are quality cos tha chain still goes round when your not pedallin
uh...no? Because this isn't a fixed cog? It's a freewheel. You'd have to run a fixed cog in the rear, and I'm not aware of any hub that will take an 8 tooth fixed cog?
They are reverse threaded so that every time you pedal it tightens.
Once you put one on and ride it for long enough, you will never be able to get it off. I had two that fused to my crankset and when the freewheel broke i had to get a new crank, sucked

but i dont see the point
there really isnt any point in this is there... why not have a freewheel at the back like the rest of us. Does look cool tho i must admit, but i cant see an advantage
its a basic thing an a trials bike to have a frount freewheel. the main advantage is more clearanceto get up stuff

its for a trial witch you want easy to pedal so you can get and hold the front end up and a 13(witch i think that is) to 8 wouldent be that bad? i rode a 25 too 15. now thats bad lol
