Have you tried to see if the pinch wheel is free to move as the bearing could be just dry. A tiny tiny drop of oil on a toothpick is about all you need to lubricate the bearing. Also is something stopping the pinch wheel from pressing fully against the drive shaft? Does the pinch wheel have a spring to give it tension? What mechanism pushes the pinch wheel onto the drive shaft? Hope this helps you in your effort to solve the problem.mike the trikehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06113513952030287447noreply@blogger.com
