I agree but this bike looks more well used than well loved.fred246 said:
If you neglect your chain this is true but if you keep an eye on your chain and replace it promptly you should find that a freewheel or cassette lasts a few chain changes.pinkladyvenus said:just a word of warning regarding replacing the chain, the freewheel ( rear cogs) and chain tend to wear in together if you put a new chain on you may find it start skipping as the freewheel teeth will be worn as well. General advice is to replace chain and freewheel at same time. have you tried soaking chain in oil to free it up.
The freewheel looks worn to me, from what I can make out in the picture anyway.0
