    Description

    Here's an overall excellent example of Shimano's innovative precision freewheel, the 600, featuring sealed mechanism and finely crafted cogs for perfect indexed or friction shifting.
    Model MF-6208: among freewheels, it is one of the quietest and one displaying a remarkable absence of freeplay, aka wobble, at the center. It is also well sealed against the incursion of grit and moisture, both front and back.
    6-speed, standard-ratio, 14-28 tooth format, and 1.370 x 24 tpi threading.
    near-spotlessly clean and ready for service: the
    bearings are newly & deeply lubed with a clingy, Phil Wood-type oil.
    Also features an advanced tooth design: they are slanted for smoother shifting, plus Shimano lowered one tooth on the middle cogs for the same desired end.
    Please study the image gallery to best appreciate.
    A freewheel with cutting-edge innovations, never to be produced again, and growing ever rarer as days go by....
