Shimano 600 Tricolor RD-6400 compatibility
Looking to swap out the suntour VX RD & 6 speed suntour freewheel on my bike with a 7S shimano MF-HG37 freewheel & tricolor RD-6400. Will the RD index properly with the MF-HG37, or only work with cassette? It is rated for max 28T, just want to do a double check.
Regards

1- I take it that the SunTour system isn't indexed? Then what Shimano shift lever will the changes include?
2- The cog to cog spacing is independent of how the cog set attaches to the hub. So compatible freewheels or cassettes will interchange, excepting the hub of course.
3- The chain will need changing too. Andy
