2. Front freewheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front_freewheel

   The Shimano Front Freewheel (FFS) was a proprietary bicycle drivetrain design of the 1970s that placed a freewheel between the pedal cranks and the front chainrings – enabling the rider to shift gears while coasting. [2] FFS rear freewheel is different than a standard freewheel because it's "stiff" with more friction than a normal rear freewheel.

3. Hyperglide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperglide

   The individual sprockets on a Hyperglide cassette or freewheel are designed specifically to work with their neighbours. [3] For example, the 18-tooth sprocket on a wide-range cassette (such as one for a mountain bike) will have a different ramp pattern than the 18-tooth sprocket on a narrow-range cassette, because the number of teeth on the neighbouring sprocket requires a different ramp ...

7. Freehub - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freehub

   Freehub vs freewheel hub. The freehub concept answers several drawbacks encountered with the freewheel design: Freewheels are threaded onto an axle hub, using conventional right-hand threads. As the bicycle rider pedals, the freewheel is continuously kept tight, as chain torque is in the right-hand direction. This becomes a problem when the ...

9. Crankset - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankset

   If used with a screw-on freewheel, a special hub with a left hand thread for a special freewheel must be used, which is also threaded left hand and ratchets the opposite direction of a normal freewheel. If the freewheel and hub were threaded with right hand threads, the torque applied by pedaling would loosen and unthread the freewheel from the ...
