  1. I have a Shimano 7-speed wheel. the tooth are worn. Should it be possible to mount a 7-speed ***
    from a Sachs wheel on the Shimano?

    I dont have the extractors, so I just want to know before I make any attempts..

  2. Thank you very muck for your answer! I have a freewheel, so I will just give it a try.

    It depends on whether you have a freewheel or a cassette. If you're replacing a 7s Shimano
    freewheel with a Sachs one, that should work fine. But if one of the wheels is a cassette and the
    other is a freewheel, you won't be able to interchange the cogs on them.

    Also, if your current wheel is a 7-speed Uniglide cassette, you can just take the cogs off and
    turn them around to get extra life. They are sometimes riveted or bolted together but those can be
    removed.
