Trouser Leg Stuck In Freewheel

my trousers got stuck and it shifted the rear wheel forward snapping the axle in a onza sealed hub.

Mine nearly did that when my freewheel decided to eat my jeans! It pulled my wheel over and bent the drive-side chain tug! :blink:

Happens to every one

then you ll learn to watch your trousers more

or

you can wear shorts (Y)

or

not baggy ass jeans :-

For Front freewheels you should keep pedaling till your trousers come out

or you can just rip them

For Rear Free obviously pedal backwards

FUN FUN FUN :P

If you ride left foot forward it won't happen half as much cos your back foot is on the drive side and is a long way from the teeth. Also, front freewheels are a lot worse for it because they spin while you coast so if your trousers get caught it winds them round with the chain

fellas,

my fellow trials riders.... I'm afraid I can top you all.

I broke my ankle when that happened to me, I was going farly fast already (not a trials bike) and stood up to accelerate past someone I think, my trouser leg got caught and because my full weight was on my other foot I pulled my own foot forward and down past the pedal onto the floor where it dragged and I fell off. Aside from lots of bruses and grazes etc I had broken my ankle.

so watch out peeps!!!! hehehe who brakes their ankle like that? :lol:

I broke my ankle in a similar way apart from it was nothing to to with trials, i was playing rugby, 10 seconds in i got tackled from behind, my foot bent all the way round and my toes touched the back of my leg, i felt no pain so i decided to get back up and try and walk and fell flat on my face. :P

Yeah freewheels are gay, profile or chris king bmx at chrimbo.

Not sure if anyones mentioned this but you shouldn't worry too much about trouser LEGS getting stuck in the freewheel, more along the lines of trouser snake(thats gotta hurt), sorry, i was bored and felt like trying(failing miserably) at being remotely funny.
