Cartridge bearings. But I pulled it apart again, tried to seat everything again, added more oil to pawls, and reassembled - seems to be working now. Assume bearings will “settle in” and spin a bit easier after a few miles?
I thought that. Then I checked all the seals were the right way around. But I think it just needed to be taken apart, sworn at, dabbed with oil, and put back together again. The mechanical version of turning it off and on again.
