Low-temperature grease or no grease are the options.[/QUOTE]

Could a hub work (ie spin) w/out grease? But its funny how it lasts until I do one of those brief stops THEN the pawls stick.

Also, the shop guys suggested that (until the new freehub gets installed) I should lightly tap the rear hub or bounce the rear wheel to unstick the pawls. Fancy that. I could have avoided walking the bike home if I knew that. Live/Ride - Learn/Dammit.
