instead of one click at a time it slams to the ground unless bearly touched instead of normal foot pressure. i tried greasing the track and that only helped very briefly. i looked at the ratchet track and toe lever/spring and it engauged by hand when the axle assembly is taken apart. is there a way to rememdy this without buying a whole new axle assembly ?

my friend just said the same thing replace the toe ratchet, not the axle. and it should fix up the issue. i figured that it was going to need to be replaced, than being able to fix it.
at least i know i can replace just the one part by ,itself and not the whole damn axle assembly with it as that is fine. Will Hemb |
