Suntour made 6 and 7 speed cassettes.

Simply for informational purposes, Shimano made 5 and 6 speed cassettes.
well if this is true, its a freewheel. When sheldon says "Unfortunately, the chainline is likely to only work with your granny gear unless you re-space the rear axle and re-dish the wheel.", what exactly does he mean? Why won't my chainline work with a new single freewheel?
