Jerry. My "Perfect" that has the 13T cog is a six-speed, standard spaced, not one of the narrow spaced. Regards, Kevin Kruger - Grantville, PA

Is your Perfect a 5 spd or 6 spd? My Sutherland's 3rd Edition shows a 14T smallest cog on all ProCompe and Perfect 5-spds and on some 6 spds. But it lists a "Pro-Compe PC-6000" 6-spd with a 13T small cog. Later Sutherlands also list ProCompe and Perfect models with suffixes similar to the above PC-6000 which were 6 spd with a 13T small. So there were FWs marked as ProCompe or Perfect that took a 13T, although they all seem to be 6 spd. Not sure you could get a 5 spd with a 13T, as you could with Winner. Also not sure if the ProCompe PC-6000 or similarly designated models had the same body as the original ProCompe.

\r?\n> Dave and other interested
\r?\n> listmembers. It was stated on the list that a 13 tooth cog
\r?\n> was not available for the "Pro Compe" or "8.8.8" bodies.
\r?\n> Well I have a SunTour "Perfect" freewheel, which I think is
\r?\n> the same as the "Pro Compe or 8.8.8." body, and it has a 13
\r?\n> tooth small cog.
\r?\n>
\r?\n> I'm not a SunTour freewheel body expert, so you may want to
\r?\n> query the list for a confirmation in the ProCompe/Perfect
\r?\n> compatibility. If the bodies are the same, then you may
\r?\n> have some luck finding a 13 tooth cog, as previously stated,
\r?\n> I have one on a "Perfect" bodied freewheel.
\r?\n>
\r?\n> Best of luck with your search!
