exhalations

After several attempts and a few bucks, finally figured out the problem I was having with my mtn/hybrid bike. The drivetrain would spin randomly, usually when not putting much pressure on the pedals. It wasn't a freewheel/chain problem, a front chainring problem, a bottom bracket problem or a loose rear axle. The freehub holder had developed a problem that allowed it to disengage periodically, causing me to free-spin. Even popped my foot out of the clip a couple of times. A new rear wheel solved the problem, and now the mtn/hybrid is nearly a new bike with all the new parts. Beats buying a new bike for twice the price.
