WANTED 8 SPEED FREEWHEEL

[Aldby]

I am looking for an 8 speed Shimano or equivalent Freewheel, either 11 to 32, 11 to 30 or 11 to 28 teeth. It is for my BionX. I have read Shimano have discontinued them, but I'm wondering if somone has one lying around or there is an equivalent from another manufacturer.

Failing all of the above, I would settle for a 7 speed.

Thanks for looking.

Ebikes.ca sells an 11-32 8 speed.

Thanks Russell,

I'm in the UK and to order from the US or Canada it would cost be $43 including shipping and take 1 to 3 months for delivery

Thank you Miles,
I have actualy seen that one, but crutially, I am looking for the smallest sprocket to be 11 tooth and it doesn't look like I am going to find one.

Ah, I missed that.

Do you need the 11t for clearance? If not, why don't you just get a bigger chainring? It's more efficient...........

Hi Nutsandvolts,
I thought of that too, but I dont think that there is space to fit one. I will look again to check.

You're probably right on that.
I just scored a 62T chainring for EBII and now have to come up with a civilised method of mashing the right chainstay so it fits.

BTW: Those chainrings are for road cranks with a 130 mm Bolt Center Diameter.
