Hi guys 🙂 whilst pedalling hard in a hard gear my pedals slip forward with a loud crack sound. Doesn't do it all the time but quite a bit 🙁 I've checked the chain, pedalling backwards fast results in easy movement so im ruling out a stiff link. Any ideas? Thanks.
Worn out chainring/rings and or chain. What do the teeth look like?
What freehub is it? I had this happen once on a hope bulb so I stripped it down, cleaned it and regreased it and it fixed it.
worn cassette or chain or broken freehub
The chain hasn't had much use and the cassette the same. Its a dmr revolver hub. I have just removed the wheel and there seems to be excessive play when i wiggle the cassette. Is this a bearing or freehub replacement?

Check the cassette lockring is tight first
Retro83 I just did and its tight 🙁 so will a bearing change fix this or is it the whole freehub?
