I just finished my first kit. The RAWMOTORS USA on a Schwinn SSX Cruiser. I had to dissasemble the rear coaster break and installed new bearings, applied lots of grease. After just a mile or two, the rear hub feels very hot to the touch.
So I took it back apart and googled step by step instructions assembling the whole bearing and coaster brake assembly.
I left the chains off ad spun it on the bike, it feels fine. Took it for a ride, still gets hot. Maybe it will get cooler as the brake clearance gets greater from wear?
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dave.
