Look Ma, No Hands!
I've got a Bendix 2 speed yellowband kickback and ran into an issue today while riding home. I went to take off from a stop and the gears slipped, it would just freewheel both forward and backwards, I had no drive or brakes. I kept messing with it for a while and was able to get high gear to engage so I guess it isn't completely busted but still no low gear or brakes. I know a little bit about these bikes but don't have any clue when it comes to these hubs, any idea on what may have broken? I've had this hub on my bike since 2018 and had it re-greased last September, but I've gone a little over 2000 miles in the last year. I did notice a couple of months ago that the brakes would stick sometimes if I applied them and then proceeded to try and roll the bike but didn't think much about it. I guess that was a sign that something was going wrong?
