Innovative plastic bicycle freewheel

This freewheel is an innovation

Designing a freewheel that is made entirely of plastic was a major challenge for us. On the one hand, the component must be extremely strong and, on the other hand, fully mobile: requirements that we were able to meet.

Since we also rely on integrated solid lubricants for the freewheel, the maintenance is enormously reduced compared to a conventional bicycle, which has to be relubricated time and again so that the components don't break.
