rear gear slipping! help! - PocketBikeForum.com

noobwithaPOS · 06-04-2007, 05:48 PM

hey guys, as stated the rear gear attached to my wheel is slipping meaning when i rev the engine, only the gear spins and not the wheel. can someone please give me an idea of what i need to do that preferably doesnt end in me getting a new wheel? if someone could just clue me in to as how this driver mechanism works that would be great too. if it matters my pocket bike is one of the larger cheap ones.

if ur spocket spins but your wheel doesnt then that means its not attached to your wheel! it aint rocket science dude.

ummm, I know quite a damn bit about bmx bikes and if i were to describe it like that i would say that the driver is skipping/disengaged. I do not see how the gear is attatched to the wheel, it doesnt just bolt on. to allow the bike to coast a driver mechanism must exist, correct? can anyone here tell me about how this driver works, all i can see is the bearings. is the driver inside of the wheel itself?

coast? are you talking bout the clutch? post some pictures if u can. The sproket should be attached to the rim be 3 or 4 screws.

noobwithaPOS · 06-05-2007, 11:32 AM

err, no clutch. its one of the crappy 49cc ones you woiuld get off of ebay, i cant get pics as of now.

WPG Racer · 06-05-2007, 04:45 PM

take the pic off ebay. a bike with no clutch?!?!?

philstubbs · 06-05-2007, 07:39 PM

sounds like your clutch isnt working to me. there are 3 screws that hold the rear sprocket on. if it is spinning then it means that those screws arent there and you need to get and also hope that there is nothing wrong with the threads in the wheel

wow if the sprockets not bolted to the wheel it would wobble till the chain came off
