Following up on my post Friday, looking for New Winner cogs, I went through the lot I just bought and also disassembled an NIP New Winner Ultra-6. Despite Sutherlands making it sound like more, it appears Winner/New Winner/Winner Pro had basically three types of cogs. The outer cog (or two-cog cluster for 7-speed) threaded on. The next three cogs,or two on a 5-speed, also threaded on, but with a slightly larger thread diameter. The two inner cogs slid on, with 4 tabs.
I want to build up some 14 or 15-32 or 34 Ultra-6 FW's on the 3 bodies I just bought. In the lot, I got one 34T and one 32T, but I'd like one or two more, and also a couple of tabbed inner 28T, or 27T if such existed. I also need 14T or 15T screw-on outer cogs. I had also thought to use a 23T, 24T or 25T cog for the third largest, i.e. third from the inside. But Sutherlands seems to say that the largest threaded middle cog was 21T, and looking through my New Winners, I do not find a middle cog larger than 21T. Was this in fact the largest New Winner middle position threaded cog? If so, it seems the Winner/New Winner wasn't really intended as a wide range touring FW, and configuring it that way is going to give some very larger jumps between the three largest cogs. So if that is right, I guess the best I can do in the middle is probably 17-19-21. I seem to have enough 17T in this lot, but could use some 19T or 21T threaded middle cogs. Anyone know of any other threaded cogs that might interchange with New Winner? I have most of the spacers, but could use a few extra Ultra-6 spacers if anyone has some.
If someone is interested in building a closer spaced FW, especially a 7-spd, I have these cogs to trade:
six 2-cog outers, three 12-13, three 11-13 one 14T middle cog three 15T middle cogs four cogs for the inner two positions, 17, 18, 21 and 23.
I'm willing to pay cash as well for 14T or 15T outers, 21 or 19 middle or 22, 23, 24, or 25T middle if they exist, or 27, 28, 32 or 34 inner.
