Pinkbike Tech: Ten-Speed and the Nine-Tooth Cassette Cog

Yes thats right, the last cogs of the capreo are not "directly" on the freewheel. you have to be carefull when you put them together an there is no good tool to thighten them up. i know from experience at work that the capreo is not as durable as the normal freewheel but i still like it. in some weeks i hope to build my new bike and it will run a capreo 9 speed hub with a mix of the sram 11-34t and the hg-70 capreo.

DT Swiss' 7 Speed Downhill Hub - Sea Otter

I don`t agree at this point. The Zerode moves the center of gravity from the bike upwards ( i dislike that ) and by using two chains you have more friction ( i don`t want that ) :)
