Freecoaster enthusiasts... Help me please
« on: August 22, 2015, 05:09:51 PM »
Why can't I find a 10 tooth driver for my KHE greyhound?

A few years back you could get 9,10 and 11 tooth drivers for the KHE line of freecoasters.

Can anyone help me find this diamond in the rough? I'm willing to pay a decent amount. I hate 9 tooth drivers as they out way too much pressure on my chain causing me to rip through them too often.

As far as I can remember KHE drivers were always available in either 9t or 11t. And the Poverty and Odyssey Reloader were 10t. Poverty 10t would work if you had a shim to take up the space for the 2nd bearing (1 6902 vs 2 6802s) it didn't have but good luck finding one. I sheared the threads in mine and that's why my Poverty wheel is sitting in my mom's storage unit being useless.

Buy a better chain? I have not broken a chain in years. I don't understand how people break chains. I swap them out every year.

yeah i thought khe drivers were only 9 or 11, and both sizes use the same crappy bearings. maybe try a keychain, or run your chain a bit slacker?
