i have a crapbrook and sometime i have to pedal one full revolution some times more before it will catch any clue what will fix this or is something bout to go?usflg
 
pffft.

is the arm secured to the frame?

if it is, you might have broken the spring inside, if it has on.

oh, and if the arm is secured, make sure it didn't strip out at the hub. that seems to be a common problem on those high quality bikes...:)
 
no worries. i can take it.

one of these days, i want to find a cranbrook (should be easy. the "weeklys" who rent beach houses abandon them when they go back home) and build one up, leave it all stock, then just friggen destroy it.

kinda a comparison of what you can buy from walmart against what i can build for ya.

the arm is secured.it stops sometime with just a little pedal travel
then wont catch for over a full rev.
 
well i took it apart and nothing was broke put it back together same thing guess ill have to use my old hiawatha rim but i kinda like the heavy guaged spokes of the crapbrook
 
Your coaster brake problem isn't funny. Calling it a "CrapBrook" is off the hook!
Add a front brake if you haven't already to take some load off the coaster.
