Not relevant here.
My hunch now is there is a 6 speed freewheel on the bike, if one has not been around long enough... they are all "cassettes".
im sorry you guys are probably right! I just counted the gears on the rear wheel and didn’t even realize the older stuff wasn’t a cassette! Thank you for educating me!
Since this is the case, is there any way to run a modern wheelset and keep the original chain, derailleur, etc. the bike has non indexed downtube shifters.
