New-Old-Stock Shimano Dura-Ace 5-Speed Freewheel (16×21)…Gold Finish Thank you for your interest in this item and please visit our store for other offerings. We have very reasonable shipping terms and combine orders to save money (for customers) on shipping costs. We also maintain customer friendly return/refund/exchange policies. Product Description: Listing Update…I have been getting some questions on my pricing of these freewheels. More specifically, I’ve had some customers inquire as to why these gold colored Dura-Ace 5-speed freewheels sell for less than some brown/black colored Shimano 600 model 5-speed freewheels we also have available. I assume the concern is there may be something functionally wrong with these Dura-Ace model freewheels. To this end, I can assure you all of these vintage Shimano branded freewheels represent first quality stocks and the only reason for the better pricing on these Dura-Ace units is due to the wholesale deal I received. I was able to get really good wholesale pricing on these Dura-Ace units, but I had to buy all of them (100+ in total) from the wholesaler. I usually do not deal in such large quantities as a small new-old-stock dealer, but I made the wholesale purchase in this case. To date, I have probably sold through maybe a third to half of my stocks…listing a few of them at a time. Hope this listing update helps clear up any questions regarding these Dura-Ace freewheels and the discounted pricing relative to some of our other Shimano freewheel offerings. Additionally, if you want a couple of these freewheel units at a modest discount, then please refer to listing #272819490457. Original Listing… This offering is for a new-old-stock Shimano Dura-Ace 5-speed freewheel with a 16-17-18-19-21 cluster in a very nice gold finish. This is a true old stock Shimano freewheel with a production window from the 70’s into the early 80’s (made in Japan) and is among the best quality Shimano branded freewheel we have available. As most folks are aware, the Dura-Ace parts designation was Shimano’s top-end during this vintage era…just as it is today. Unfortunately, I just have the one cluster or gear combination at this time, but if this tight sprocket range is something that will work for your particular application, then this new-old-stock find might be worthy of consideration. In terms of compatibility, this is a freewheel, so it will only install on a threaded rear hub (as opposed to the newer cassette/splined freehub designs that are more common today). The threading is British/English, so it’s 1.370″ x 24 tpi (threads per inch), which was one of the more prominent standards during this period…and very near a couple of other standards. More specifically, there is the Italian standard of 1.378″ x 24 tpi with a slightly larger thread diameter and different thread angle, but the same thread pitch as the British/English standard. Then there is the newer ISO standard of 1.375″ x 24 tpi (which is the preferred specification of most newer freewheel manufactures) with the same thread pitch and angle as the British/English standard and a thread diameter between the British/English and Italian models. When considering the three aforementioned standards, conventional wisdom indicates there is some interchangeability among them…with a few caveats. More specifically the thread pitches are the same, while the thread diameters and angles are close enough that it’s possible to install a freewheel spec’d to one standard on a threaded rear hub spec’d to a different standard (among the three included in this discussion). Although, one of the caveats is to avoid switching back and forth between standards, as there is still enough of a diameter and/or angle difference to prematurely wear-out/damage rear hub threading if this (switching back and forth) practice is employed. In other words, it’s best to identify a freewheel standard (among the three mentioned) and then consistently use freewheels spec’d to that standard to help preserve the threads on a particular aluminum alloy rear hub. Additionally, we have learned these mix-n-match combinations may not be recommended for stronger riders and tandem applications…where there is additional drivetrain stress…as this combination may also result in premature thread damage to an aluminum alloy rear hub. I realize this latter commentary is somewhat subjective…and maybe somewhat conservative…but we feel like it’s better to error on the downside of product function, so there are no disappointments concerning product performance down the road. As for condition, this freewheel unit is new and unused…and shows no signs of wear on the teeth. The unit will also come in it’s original retail box and plastic wrapping (with the original factory oil still visible), but some of the boxes are shopworn.

Note to international customers regarding shipping… We apologize to those that feel some of our international shipping charges are too high. We only charge actual shipping rates, but once an order exceeds a certain amount, we hesitate to use the least expensive US Postal Services First Class International service. We feel this way, because this service is not trackable or insurable…so more risk of loss. We prefer the US Postal Services Priority Mail International service for more expensive orders, because this service is trackable at USPS.com and insurable…so less risk of loss. Unfortunately, this service is more expensive, especially for smaller/lighter packages, relative to the First Class International service. We are sorry about these higher shipping costs, but hopefully our notes help to explain why this is the case. Note to international customers regarding customs… We also apologize to those that feel their country import taxes, duties and brokerage fees are excessive. As a small US business, we are required by customs’ laws to declare each order as a retail sale. Additionally, the declared order value must be equal to total store purchases and/or winning auction bids (less any shipping costs, as these are not considered in the declared value). As a result, each customer will be responsible for paying his/her own country taxes, duties and brokerage fees, which will be collected upon delivery. Again, we apologize for these additional costs, but we cannot afford the penalties and fines that come with breaking customs’ laws…so we have to strictly abide by them.
