Bought this bike a couple months ago and I was riding it the other day and noticed pedaling was more difficult. Thought I had my chain too tight, went to check it and encountered this. I’m on my way to buy grease but figured I’d ask y’all.

Check lower bearing set
Take it apart and have a look.
– borked bearing
– missing internal spacer
– too short internal spacer
– bent spindle
If it was like that since you brought it the previous owner could of done that on purpose I do it on my DJ and BMX bikes do when doing tricks where I take my feet off the pedals the cranks stay in place. Lots of ways to do this just thought it might help to know this.
