I have to admit that SO green is growing on me

One thing I've noticed is that for singlespeeds in general...shimano,
ACS...etc. SS freewheels don't do it for me. They're noisy and imprecise.
For my Peugeot PX-10 SS I ordered a White Industries ENO freewheel...love
it...quiet...with the nice chainline

If I can ever wear out my OEM freewheel (ACS) that came on the Quickbeam,
the ENO is on the top of my list.  Those are gloriously machined and I've
come very close to picking one up more than a few times.

The thing is that the Quickbeam pretty much lives on the fixed side of the
hub.  I've worn out the bearings on the Suzue which came with it, am on my
third fixed sprocket, but the only problem with the freewheel is that it's
dusty...

"The bike between her legs was like some hyper-evolved alien tail she'd
somehow extruded, as though over patient centuries; a sweet and intricate
bone-machine, grown Lexan-armored tires, near-frictionless bearings, and gas
filled shocks."
