hi all received 350w rear hub moter kit from elife during the week , I need a 7 speed screw on freewheel.

having googled and searched e bay I can only find shimano type splined freewheels

Halfords had one 11-28t but £17 ( I only tend to use the 4 lowest cogs on my exising freewheel shimano which I intend to swap out rear hub for the newer one)

so would prefer 14-32 if possible

but cannot find anything on ebay. pic of freewheel moter

Aren’t all free wheels ‘screw on’? It’s just the type of fitting on the removal tool that varies.

thanks all on the elife web site someone has pointed out the shimano freewheel is not the correct one.
all the shimano freewheels have splines.
the one I was shown in Halfords there own brand , was just threaded.
there cycle mechanic had gone home so could not double check.

the supplied freewheel tool has splines, so makes it a bit confusing

You only need the splines to remove a freewheel, the ‘ratchet’ is locked when you screw it on the wheel thread.

A cassette hub has splines and a thread, a freewheel hub has only a thread.

I think you got a bit mixed up with what Halfords originally offered you. 11/28 is a cassette that goes on a spline. 14T freewheels (screw on) are common as muck. You can get them anywhere and they're very cheap.

Just to make it clear what the two types are:
The type that goes on a spline is a free-hub - normally called a cassette.
The type that screws on is called a free-wheel.
