My tourney was worn out and the hanger was bent so i figured i’d upgrade while changing the hanger and install a mega range freewheel

Paired this with a shimano altus right side trigger shifter 7 speed

Installed this onto a mongoose ardor due to the cheap pro rush derailleur binding the chain up real bad when hitting a small jump or bunny hopping a little higher than an inch
