Today I noticed when I pedal it felt like the chain was slipping off, and eventually it stopped working completely. I only pedal on steep hills and to help the bike accelerate from a stand.
I was expecting the chain to be hanging off completely but it was seated perfectly and going round normally. It seems the part on the rear sprocket that lets you pedal backwards (freewheel?) might be faulty.
I have no idea what to do with it, or if my local bike shops will be able to fix it, especially if the wheel needs removing. I might try lubricating it tomorrow and see if it helps.
