Freewheel on MP5
« on: July 28, 2019, 04:56:26 PM »
Is there any issue fitting a 6 or 7 speed freewheel to an MP5 Vector? Is there a particular recommended freewheel?

I have never done this so apologies in advance if this is a dumb question.

I just used the existing Shimano 7 speed free wheel from my donor bike. A Huffy parkside, but would not recommend going larger or more gears. (wider)



You will need a free wheel removal tool... this one worked great for me.
