Suntour freewheel chart
Not long ago, someone posted a scan of the Suntour freewheel cog chart for 5, 6, Ultra 6, and 7 speed Suntour freewheels. I stupidly forgot to bookmark it, and now can't find it. Can anyone steer me back to it? I haven't yet done any freewheel customizing, and with winter coming on, I figure this is as good a time as any to start.

Maybe what you're after was these New Winner charts. I downloaded them, and just now put them up on my Flickr photostream, so feel free.

Interesting it is not shown on the charts but 20+ years ago I acquired a suntour freewheel with an 11 tooth high cog. It would only screw into a special 13 tooth 2nd position cog but I managed to modify it to work with a 12 tooth second cog for an 11-17 strait block. It was my secret weapon for downhill wind driven time trialing back before 11 tooth cassettes were available. Once got 2nd place using it at tour of Gila TT which has a long fast downhill, even beat John Fry in that race and he held the national 40Km record.

Great stuff.
A cow-orker of mine once made one of these for Regina freewheels. He figured it out himself, and it was the most complicated freewheel of its time. I don't think it was ever published.
