Hello all. I'm looking for a whizzer rear wheel sheave to try on my new felt bike. I'm located in the Dallas fort worth Texas area.

Anyone have a rear sheave I can test fit or buy?

Thanks
Randy

on ebay......the user thats selling them and is great to buy from is "whizzerpaul" he's from indiana and the sheave with mounting hardware is $40 and he ships fast and cheaply.
are you planning on using a cvt to drive it? I acquired a whizzer ambassador chopper empty and im looking at that for it with the predator motor....not sure there's room on the backside of the cvt for a pulley though...i'll know when it gets here.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. I've looked on eBay and only see 2 sheaves so far. One is very worn and the other is attached to a wheel and comes from Taiwan. I don't buy from eBay so I may just order from one of the online companies I've found.

Paul will take care of you...the above listing is Joe from tawian and he's good too, just shipping sometimes is pricey.........good luck and happy new year!

Hi carcrafter22, something to consider, the vintage whizzer sheave isn't as wide as the new edition whizzer sheave. vintage sheave should give more of the advantage.
