was riding the other day and noticed the cassette was just slipping when id pedal. Initially thought it was the freehub bearings, but when the entire wheel started to seize, stated to think differently. Long story short, when i took the wheel off to look at it, the drive side flange on the hub had a gigantic crack through it all the way around the inside rim. the whole wheel seized up, and since 24 hole hubs are harder to find, going to replace the whole wheel. nobody at the shop where i work had ever seen anything like it, so i was wondering if it has happened to anyone else here. it is a real weird crack, ill see if i can get some pics uploaded here.
