Title: Abnormal noise RW4
Post by: Trema on August 28, 2024, 09:00:33 AM
hello,

I hadn't used my RW4 for a month and yesterday I had to take it again.

5 kilometers later I feel like something is rubbing cyclically. I don't see anything blocked or annoying and I leave without assistance.
As soon as the electric assistance works the same noise. I decide to turn around but on the way it gets worse and worse... Tac tac tac tac tac!! I ended up with muscle and no problems  ::)

Does this bring back memories to anyone?

Original RW4 Europe
2000km (1200miles)
Hydraulic brakes

under warranty...  8)

Looks and sounds like the brake disc is out of alignment.

Thanks for the answer.

The disc is aligned and nothing is in the way. I had thought about it too but in this case in muscular it would have done it too.

According to Rad, the problem is the freewheel, I'll do that soon.
