[edit] Merge, rename
Should freewheel (bicycle part) and cassette (bicycle part) have separate articles be merged into a new article? They both discuss the rear cogset or cluster of a derailleur systems. But If so, what should the new name be? Cogset or cluster? --Christopherlin 21:17, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
Oppose: A freewheel includes the ratcheting system where as a cassette does not. Cassette using system have the ratching in the hub or bottom braket (latter is rare)--Ray 01:54, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
- Well, freewheel opens with "An earlier design of a cogset", and casettte opens with "It is a later development of a cogset." Threaded and threadless headsets, for instance, are discussed in the same article. --Christopherlin 02:43, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
Support: OK I am fickle. Having one page for freewheels and cassettes makes sense as long as they explain the differences. I would suggest having cassette as the main page with freewheel re-directed to it. Many more folks in the US know cassette more than freewheel. --Ray 11:16, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
- Merge finished. --Christopherlin 14:54, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
