Gimmie a better description of the offecenteredness thing that you described. I wanna tackle this."

The noise occurs when pedaling or coasting but disappears when braking.

The "offcenteredness" had the brake side tightening to the frame with only one turn and the sprocket side tightening to the frame with multiple turns. I used another Beach Cruise coaster brake setup as a guide to make this one more equal and flush for lack of a better term. After I did that, the brakes worked great.

Still not getting it.

Are the dropouts spaced wider than the hubs locknuts?

What did you adjust to change things.
