does this bike use a freewheel or a cassette?

I'm sorry not to be of help, but I don't understand the question. Let's assume that Stephen S. answered correctly.

Dear Juice: There are two systems. One is the older-style freewheel where the cog unit goes screwed on the hub of the rear wheel. This Shimano Tourney is one of those screw-on cogs. The newer system is where the cog unit -called a cassette- goes pushed and then locked on a splined extension of the hub. Both systems are not compatible. My advise is get a bike mechanic or a friend who knows the difference between the two systems have a look at your bike and tell you which system it has before you spend the money :-) Hope this helps, Andy :-)

As others have said this has no freewheel. If it's serviceable, you can reuse your old freewheel. But special tools are required to remove a freewheel. Weigh the cost of these tools against either purchasing a new freewheel or having a bike shop extract the old one.

Hi, I bought these wheels for my 71 Schwinn with a freewheel. I don't own a bike with a cassette, but I understand that this is completely different from a freewheel. I think that there are different models of rim with different hubs loaded for freewheels, fixies, and cassettes, so look for those. For my bike however, the LP18's are great. These are in fact some sort of aluminum alloy.

None that I know of. The t stands for teeth so no need to worry.The cassette works just as good as any Shimano...

In our experience the free wheel is only for forward motion. when you back pedal it applies the brakes. This has had some interesting consequences for the second child in the back seat on ours which is built out as a tandem bike. A frustrated toddler in the front seat can lock up the brakes suddenly when they dont want to go back into the driveway home :)

sure but if you are going to change crank you may have to change cassette so check bike shop. I had a problem with my wheel hub so I had change wheels.

Both. If you reverse pedal it brakes and also there is a handlebar brake for the front tire.

It takes a 23c tube a tire if that helps. It does have the flip flop hub to add both, fixed and freewheel cogs.

A Freewheel/flywheel is not the same as a cassette and can not be interchanged different setup on the wheel hub

This is a Freewheel which screws directly onto the rear hub and does not use spacers. Unlike freewheels, cassettes mount on a freehub body, and may or may not require spacers based on the cassette speed.

If your bike has a traditional spin-on freewheel, you can replace just the freewheel itself. If however your rear wheel is equipped with the more modern and common freehub, you will likely have to replace or repair the hub or entire wheel. A few drops of oil inside the assembly might fix it up for a time, if you can manage that.

It will accept a freewheel but not a cassette. The rims are double-wall aluminum. Beware shipping damage.

Freewheels and cassettes are two different and non-compatible gear clusters for the rear hub of derailer bicycles. If you are buying a new gear cluster and are presently using a 7 speed cassette, best to buy a direct replacement cassette gear cluster. If you bought a cassette and found out your hub was older and used freewheels then those are also available. Go to the Sheldon Brown website for a more complete description of both gear systems.

I assume you actually mean between the cranks and flywheel since all pedals spin freely. The answer is no, it does not "freewheel." That's how all spin bikes work and that's what makes them different from an old-school "exercise" bike. It's a direct connection from the crank sprocket to the flywheel via the chain and there is no freewheel on the flywheel �

I do not know what you mean by "free hub body." The wheel has a threaded shank onto which you screw a standard freewheel (not a cassette).

It's still a free wheeled system. Fixie is a bad name for it. It should just say single speed. All it does is provide spacers and a lock ring for a cassette, along with a cog. So in short, no, not fixed.
