My SS has not been used for a few weeks, and when I picked it up last night the rear wheel was tight to turn. So I did some quick checks - Chain and brakes OK (Not tight/binding), freewheel fine. When I loostened off the QR the wheel span freely, tighten it up, all sticky again.

Now nothing had changed mechanically, so it's nothing to do with spacers or anything like that, and I took it for a quick ride up and down the street, which didn't loosten it off.

So whaddya reckon? Bearings siezing up?
I've not had time for a full examination yet, but there's no play in them...

Odd....
