Giant Fastroad e

[Billh]

My Fastroad has approximately 9k all weather miles on it and has gone through a few chains, chain wheels and cassettes in that time and has a fault which I think may be the motor freeewheel pawls or the hub they engage with. The problem is intermittent but quite frequent and mostly occurs when starting to pedal after freewheeling, it feels as if it originates in the crank area as opposed to the freehub.the freehub has not been changed but feels positive though not loud. The motor freeewheel feels and sounds ok. Stripping the motor isn't a problem but don't want to if parts are not available or if anyone has any suggestions.
Thanks

You don't actually say what the problem or it's symptom are?

You have a point mate! It feels like when a worn chain slips on a chain wheel caused by worn teeth or worn chain. The cassette, chain and chain wheel are new.

Does this sound like a known fault with the Syncdrive Pro (PW-X)?

As Jeanmaerc said... No, it's not normally a motor symptom.
If I had to guess I would say freehub. Have seen many worn and cracked freehubs that cause slipping as you describe.

Many thanks for the help. Freehub it is!
