I have a Trek 1400 fitted with Shimano 105. On my ride home last night I was suddenly able to pedal freely with no drive going to the rear wheel. When I stopped, I found that the rear cassette could spin freely in both directions.
As the ride is generally downhill I started scooting along and rolling down the slopes. Playing with the gears, I then found that changing up to a higher gear/smaller cog I re-engaged the cassette and it was fine this morning.
Is it likely that the freewheel just needs a good clean? Or is it likely that I'm going to need a replacement cassette?
