Shimano SF-1200 Single Speed Freewheel (16Tx1/8" 1 Speed) Review

Let me just say that this freewheel works as described! It is quiet, smooth, and does it's job accordingly.

My only gripe with it is that the mechanism, dare I say it, sounds... cheap and tinny. When pedaling or coasting, it just sounds like the mechanism is not exactly a quality part. It is Shimano and I KNOW it is a quality company, but just the sound of it makes it sound cheaper than it is. Makes me feel a bit unsure of the long-term reliability.

Other than that, excellent free wheel!

::EDIT (June 13, 2012)::
After putting the freewheel through its paces, it has broken in more and sounds considerably less tinny and more reassuring of it's longevity. I think this is going to be a promising freewheel in the long run! :)

::UPDATE (August 7, 2013)::
Still has been a champ! After some cleaning and re-lubing, it's running even more quiet than ever. However, word to the curious, this freewheel is compatible with only ONE freewheel remover from Shimano (which costs quite a pretty penny...). The design of the pins to remove the freewheel are not the best and can be tough to remove the freewheel if it hasn't been touched in a while (there have been a few cases of the remover pins shearing off). Please keep this in mind when making your decision as I learned the hard way when I needed the freewheel off for hub adjustment and cleaning.
