Not sure how to explain this but I have to push clutch all the way in for back wheel to spin there is very little play I mean all the way in can I get some feedback how to fix this? And thanks other than that that bikes running great
I can't really take a picture It is not a problem at the moment it's just I have to squeeze clutch all the way in and then some to pedal other wise the wheel does not turnA picture is worth 1000 words...
My point is that maybe your clutch cable might be too twisted & not allowing the clutch to activate properly... or maybe there's some other problem that someone here can easily spot in a picture... But it's extremely hard to diagnose just from your vague original post.I can't really take a picture It is not a problem at the moment it's just I have to squeeze clutch all the way in and then some to pedal other wise the wheel does not turn
We messaged at the same time iam not mechanically inclined but getting better appreciate you trying to read my mind but like I said I didn't know how to explain itMy point is that maybe your clutch cable might be too twisted & not allowing the clutch to activate properly... or maybe there's some other problem that someone here can easily spot in a picture... But it's extremely hard to diagnose just from your vague original post.
Anyways... I hope someone else here (who's better at reading minds through the internet) will jump in & figure out the problem for you... (without the help of pictures).... Good luck!![]()
OK... now I might be able to help you!We messaged at the same time iam not mechanically inclined but getting better appreciate you trying to read my mind but like I said I didn't know how to explain it
Thanks man I appreciate itOK... now I might be able to help you!
Release the locking lever on the clutch lever (so the main lever is all the way out).... Then adjust all the slack out of the cable.
how do I do that maybe have to get a new cable cause all the nuts are adjusted all the way outOK... now I might be able to help you!

Here... Clutch cable and clutch adjusting procedures for Motorized Bicycles | Motorized Bicycle Engine Kit Forum (motorbicycling.com)how do I do that maybe have to get a new cable cause all the nuts are adjusted all the way out
Welp... If he searches a little more ... he'll find plenty more info on clutch cable adjustment.The link works Norm, but is 12yrs old and the photos are gone and so is poor KC.
Somebody with time and patience should rework GearNut's how to thread with photo's.
Then again. these days there are YouTube's for just about anything.

Did you figure it out????????how do I do that maybe have to get a new cable cause all the nuts are adjusted all the way out
You can shorten the cable jacket to get more length out of the cable and put a new end on it... Start fresh with the nuts all the way in then pull the cable tight making sure the ends fit into the pockets then get it together and lock it down... Have a friend hold the cable with plyers as you lock it down... You should feel the slightest bit of tension on ithow do I do that maybe have to get a new cable cause all the nuts are adjusted all the way out
Those kind of clutch levers are total junk and either won't allow the clutch to completely disengage or you have to hold it in to get it there... The type with the locking button is going to open up the clutch more and keep it there and work like it should...I have it locked on last slot the back wheel will not turn is it my cable or clutch and how do I fix it
