Hi,
I have a Q100 in the front wheel of my 700C and did a first test run.
Everything feels ok, but when I spin the wheel in the opposite direction it feels as if a brake was on.
So I disassembled the Magura and everything else on the front wheel. There is just the motor inside the hub.
When the bike is turned upside down and I give the wheel a good spin, it'll keep revolving some 20-25 seconds, which should be ok in terms of friction of the hub.
But if I try to spin it the other way around, it won't move an inch after I let go.
Is that normal for geared hub motors, specifically the Q100?
I'm a little worried.
Thanks, guys
