Sachs Duomatic - 2 speed kickback hub

Finally got one.  It came from a wonderful hub geek in Germany and it's in NOS condition no less.  I've overhauled it and laced it into a nice DT Swiss 700c rim.  Then I put it on my single speed and took off.  It was a perfectly smooth 2 speed bicycle ride for 2 miles.  Then the hub trouble started.  It just stopped turning as though I had applied the coaster brake. 

I'm looking around for solutions and will post on a few forums.  It's a rookie hub mounting mistake I suspect.  I'll bet my hub geed friend in Germany will have the answer!

Stay tuned

  2. Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it can
    survive a 25 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.
    My iPad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely
    off topic but I had to share it with someone!

  9. I do not drop a great deal of remarks, but after reading a few of the remarks on "Sachs Duomatic - 2 speed kickback hub".
    I actually do have 2 questions for you if you tend not to mind.
    Is it just me or does it look like a few of these responses
    look like they are written by brain dead individuals? :
    -P And, if you are posting at other social sites, I'd like to keep up with you. Would you make a list of the complete urls of your social pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
