The answer to your question is no. I believe cassettes started at 6
speed somewhere in the early 80s. 7 speed cassettes are still readily
available in a decent variety of combinations. A favorite of mine is 13-28
and 13-34 is not hard to find either.
While I agree with your general
Five?? Three cogs is plenty, and 640k of RAM ought to be enough as well.
Not at all an apt comparison. High data web content and software
capability grow faster than computer speed. On the other hand, riding
terrain remains fairly the same. The hills and dales our parents cycled

Back when bikes had freewheels, and freewheels had 5 cogs on em I
bought a bike with a 14-18 straight block and 44 52 chainrings.
I was skeptical about the gears, but the guy said something along the
lines of sometimes its nice to be able to hit just exactly the gear
you want, and I decided to
They made 5 speed cassettes for Uniglide hubs [I have one] but you'd have
to do a lot of futzing to make it work on a Hyperglide one.

I have a 10 speed cassette. I use my shifter in friction mode for the

I often shift like 2,3,4 cogs at a time. I kinda ride the areas of the

Three? We don't need no stinkin' multispeed freewheels; hell, we don't
even need any stinkin' freewheels. Single speed fixed is the answer.
