    Description

    New-Old-Stock Suntour Multiple Freewheel Clearance Gauge
    Thank you for your interest in this item and please visit our store for other offerings. We have very reasonable shipping terms and combine orders to save money (for customers) on shipping costs. We also maintain customer friendly return/refund/exchange policies.
    Product Description:
    This offering is for a new-old-stock multiple freewheel clearance gauge.  Or said another way, this is simple spacer tool that includes three steel bricks...each with a different thickness...to help measure/confirm spacing on Suntour's various 5/6/7 speed freewheels.  More specifically, the three spacers included the following stamped markings...
    Shiny Silver Spacer:
    Regular size...measures spacing on 5-speed freewheels and standard/normal spaced 6-speed freewheels
    Matte Silver Spacer:
    Ultra size...measures spacing on narrow spaced 6-speed freewheels and low gear spacing on 7-speed freewheels
    Black Spacer:
    Ultra size (1st - 2nd) and (2nd - 3rd)...measures high gear spacing on 7-speed freewheels
    Additional note:
    Suntour 7-speed freewheels would sometimes include spacers of different widths, as noted above, with the higher gears (smaller sprockets) having more space between them relative to the lower gears (taller sprockets).  The reason for this variable spacing is the chain line was generally not as good when the chain was wrapped around one of the higher gears (positioning the chain further away from the frame and creating a less desirable chain angle to the front chainring), so a little extra spacing helped compensate for the less than ideal chain line.
    We have a small box of these spacers and each set is new and in it's original retail packaging (a Suntour branded plastic bag).

    Note to international customers regarding shipping...
    We apologize to those that feel some of our international shipping charges are too high. We only charge actual shipping rates, but once an order exceeds a certain amount, we hesitate to use the least expensive US Postal Services First Class International service. We feel this way, because this service is not trackable or insurable...so more risk of loss. We prefer the US Postal Services Priority Mail International service for more expensive orders, because this service is trackable at USPS.com and insurable...so less risk of loss. Unfortunately, this service is more expensive, especially for smaller/lighter packages, relative to the First Class International service. We are sorry about these higher shipping costs, but hopefully our notes help to explain why this is the case.
    Note to international customers regarding customs...
    We also apologize to those that feel their country import taxes, duties and brokerage fees are excessive. As a small US business, we are required by customs' laws to declare each order as a retail sale. Additionally, the declared order value must be equal to total store purchases and/or winning auction bids (less any shipping costs, as these are not considered in the declared value). As a result, each customer will be responsible for paying his/her own country taxes, duties and brokerage fees, which will be collected upon delivery. Again, we apologize for these additional costs, but we cannot afford the penalties and fines that come with breaking customs' laws...so we have to strictly abide by them.
