Free Spinning Workouts

Remove the wheel from the bike, and remove the skewer. Lay the wheel flat with the cassette and freehub facing upwards. Protect the disk rotor if you have one. Now give the freehub area a good whack with a strong stick, along the line of the axle. Remove the wheel from the bike, and remove the skewer.

I did a search, but honestly didn't know what to search for regarding this problem. Anyway, when I spin my cranks in the forward direction and then stop to coast (while the bike is in the stand), the cranks continue to spin with the rear hub. If I hold the crank while the rear wheel is coasting, the chain sags onto the rear chain stay. And you can't easily spin the cranks in reverse, as again, they hang onto the rear stay. Is the locking ring on my cassette too tight? It's only about 1/3 to 1/2 a turn past hand tight, which I'm sure is well below the recommended torque. Wheel is a zipp 606 with DT Swiss 240 hub with Shimano spline. I'm using an IRD cassette with a DA 10 lock ring (it's significantly lighter than the IRD lock ring, and there isn't any chain interference when on the small cog). FWIW, I had the hub apart for a bearing upgrade and just put the cassette back on tonight. Everything looks fine with the hub/wheel until you try and coast. Thanks
