It's a shame they decided to put "SHIMANO" in billboard sized letters on the thing. Shhhhh...I actually run a Shimano freewheel on my Bottecchia 'cause it shifts so much better than the Regina but it's an older gold colored one that only has Shimano stamped in tiny letters on one of the cogs so no one can see ... The IRD's certainly have a nice range selection for both their freewheels and their cassettes. I wonder if their quality issues that Sheldon mentioned have been resolved?
