The Shimano MF-TZ500 Tourney 7-Speed Freewheel is a reliable drivetrain component designed for bicycles using compatible 7-speed rear gearing. Part of Shimano’s Tourney TZ series, it combines smooth shifting performance, practical gear ranges, lightweight construction, and easy installation for everyday cycling, commuting, recreational riding, and general bicycle maintenance.
Featuring HYPERGLIDE tooth profiling, the MF-TZ500 is designed to help the chain move smoothly between sprockets for cleaner and more consistent gear changes. This makes it a practical choice for riders who want dependable shifting across urban roads, mixed terrain, and moderate climbs.
The freewheel is available in 14-28T and 14-34T configurations. The 14-28T option offers closer gear steps for smoother cadence changes, while the wider 14-34T range provides an easier low gear for climbing and hilly routes. This gives riders the flexibility to select a setup that matches their riding style and terrain.
Its lightweight construction helps keep unnecessary drivetrain weight under control, while the easy assembly design makes it suitable for replacement, repair, and routine bicycle servicing. The freewheel is compatible with HG 6/7/8-speed chains, making it suitable for a variety of compatible drivetrain systems.
Designed for threaded rear hubs, the Shimano MF-TZ500 can be used on many mountain bikes, hybrid bikes, city bicycles, commuter cycles, and recreational bikes equipped with compatible 7-speed drivetrains.
