Review on SunRace 5-Speed Freewheel 14-28T: Enhanced Performance in Silver/Black by Robert Morrison

Revainrating 5 out of 5

better than the sunlite ratchet

I used these to replace a 5 speed ratchet I bought at my local bike shop to replace the original ratchet on my bike that was stuck (it became not turned). The freehub I bought at the bike shop was Sunlite, they didn't have any other brand, it slipped when I was in top gear no matter what derailleur setting I set, I even changed the chain a week later. When I removed the Sunlite freehub to replace it, I noticed that the teeth on the top cog were worn out. After switching to the Sunrace ratchet I had no problems, my bike shifts and does not jump in any of the gears. The Sunrace appears to be made from much better materials. I would definitely recommend Sunrace over Sunlite freewheel. I would also recommend replacing the chain and freewheel at the same time to be on the safe side.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Expensive
