The Salt AM 18T freewheel delivers exactly what you expect from a solid BMX drivetrain: predictable, direct, and stable feel with every pedal stroke. The 18-tooth design is a conscious choice, giving quicker engagement than traditional higher tooth counts, so the drive picks up faster under load.
The threading is precisely machined, less prone to loosening, and keeps the system tight even after extended use. This really shows when you put power down into a trick or sprint, as the drivetrain stays consistent without that vague, slipping feeling.
The flip-flop compatibility isn’t just a bonus, it’s real freedom. You can choose which side to run your drive on without compromise.
Salt has always been about simple, well-thought-out components under the Wethepeople umbrella, and that mindset is clear here. Nothing overcomplicated, no unnecessary extras, just reliable performance where it matters.
This is a freewheel you install and forget about. It just works.
