My hope cranks we’re working fine and then gradually over a few minutes of riding became stiffer. To the point that they don't spin unless you use considerable force. I rode around 8 miles before this happened.
Any ideas, suggestions?
Preload nut cinch bolt not tightened properly and the preload nut has tightened further the more you pedal.
Buy some hollowtechs?
Sorry but Hope stuff does sometimes seem to be over engineered/complicated just for the sake of it.
