Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
ND "D" that won't stop pedaling....
Not sure what could be the problem with this rear wheel rebuild. It's a first for me.
Here's the issue....the rear wheel does not coast without the pedals (crank) still rotating.
I stop pedaling and the crank continues to pedal. Thevrear sprocket will not disengage. Therefore still engages the chain resulting in the crank to rotate without pedal power.
Try rolling the bike backwards and the rear wheel locks up.
Some difficulty braking too but, it does brake with rear pedal added pressure.
I did replace the brake internal spring during the rebuild. I did not change out another internal parts including the discs Perhaps the replaced spring is the problem.
Seeing that is what engages the brake dics.
But, why do you think the rear cog won't disengage?
Your thoughts and possible resolution is welcomed.
It's all about the Tanklights!!
How did I run out of room so fast?
