Coaster Brake Mag Wheels??

[Wrench]

I hope your $120 wheels are fine. Worksman wheels will cost about 2x that. But you'll get 10x the quality.
You were asking about greasing coaster brakes? From what I remember as a kid, Yea Grease them

Coaster brakes at not designed to stop a motorized bicycle, grease it good, it's going to get hot.

Ok, I will use my disk brakes at faster speeds and my coaster when I'm going slow.

If you have front and rear disc brakes I think you will find that you don't use it very much at all. I guess in conjunction with a disc brake it might give you a little more stopping power in the case of an emergency. It should be stated that you want most of your stopping power on your front brake and when you are going slowly you probably won't even use the rear brake.

Is my rear wheel supposed to have some play?

 

[Chainlube]

Coaster brake wheel? Probably.

 

[Frogslayer]

Side to side play?

 

[YetiWoodz]

Side to side play?

Yeah

 

[Frogslayer]

Not good. You'll need to tighten the bearing cup a little more

Did any of you guys have a pedal that got stripped threads? I was able to get a free warranty crank, crank bearings, and pedals. How can I prevent this from happening again?
