DEAR SIR OB MADAM,— BE RALEIGH AND OTHER PREX WHEELS. HAVING In view the fact that plain bearings in cycles wc. abolished years ago, we did not reet i -• tent until it was demonstrated at Crystal Palace during the National Shu./ and admitted by all the principal and .ifdependent expert* that we possessed T —A BEST ADJUSTABLE BALL-11 EAR! N. 1 FBICTIONLESS FREE WHEEL on tm> market. Plain, bearing free wheel gears do tot, of course, allow cycle* to run as fast' at those with ball bearings, or fixed gears, and they are not adjustable. In time"the type of plain bearing free wheel gear snH also became free both ways, and therefore useless. As this freedom generally happens when the rider is patting presence upon his pedals, ho is liable te ne thrown. Plain bearing free wheel gears have only one advantage, and that is to the manufacture, who can got them made by cheap labour at less than half the coet, and in one-quarter of the time that It takes to make onrs with ball bearings containing 124 perfectly gauged steel balls. It is therefore on account of cheap and quick construction that nearly all cycle manufacturers, and' the princinal makers of cyole parts, are pushing the sals of plain bearing free wheels, most of which, not being really free, are bringing fee* wheeling into disrepute.
