This weekend, I was told that Regina America and Suntour New
Winner freewheels work with Shimano SIS. The spacing is alledged
to be identical. If true, it seems like a great way to avoid $50
7-speed Dura-Ace freewheels. Have any of you noters tried this?
Does it work? It sounds too logical to be true.

>> If true, it seems like a great way to avoid $50 7-speed Dura-Ace >> freewheels. I'm not sure about the other brands but I had the same problem with finding an inexpensive freewheel for Shimano. I ended up getting a Shimano Sant� for $28 at the local Nashbar outlet. (13-24, 7 speed). I found a lot of 6 speed 600ex. Tom | |||||

I've used a Suntour Winner (Pro?) 7-speed with Ultegra for 2 seasons with no problems in SIS mode. It worked better in SIS mode with a Sedis than did the Ultegra cassette, which only seemed to like Shimano chains. I was planning on replacing it with a Regina, and I'm hoping that it will work.
