I got my bike and it had NO slack, So I took apart the hub and removed all 3 slack rings. Put it back together and have about 1/8 of a crank before it engages. I want a little more slack because my feet move around a little more than they should when I ride, But the question is... HOW? I've already removed all of the slack rings. KHE internals if that helps.

Yeah if you're all outta slack rings to remove then that's your slack limit. Sounds like you're just gonna have to deal with it. you'd be surprised how much your mind/body will adjust to something once you decide to do it though. Have some fun.

To get more slack after pull off the 3 tiny washers, pull out the big hat washer and put it back the other way, you'll have a lot more slack.

I regreased my superold Geisha freecoaster, turned around the Big washer. Now it makes cracking noises when pedaling. And pedaling backwards is a bit harder.

If I choose to do this and it is too much slack for my liking, would I still be able to put a slack ring on to make it suit my riding more comfortably?
