[#3209459]

the GF has a Sun Ringle Jumping Flea rear hub.

the chain and casette are both new, so that isn't the problem.

when she sets off occasionally the cranks spin and there is a "clonk" noise.

whilst riding along if you back pedal and then continue forward pedalling you can feel the hub struggling to engage.

solutions?

Pawls in the freehub not engaging - how old? If old and not serviced then pawls could be worn, or springs etc - or crud in mechanism?
