I notice the pawls are self-contained in the inner hub. I tried decades ago to service Regina corsa or oro freewheel bearings, and the problem was that the pawls were not completely held. The pawls fell out as did the little springs behind them, and I couldn't get them put back together correctly.

Is that troublesome design completely out of the market? Are Sachs/Maillard freewheels designed that way, or like the one in the pictures?
