Hey, is it typical for a set of new fully assembled wheels to have a some what stiff free hub? I just got a set of Azonic Outlaws and the free hub isn’t exactly all that free. It turns real easily when I spin it, but it just almost immediately stops turning when I let it go. Its still smooth though. No rough or irregular vibration. It feels like the bearings inside are so chock full of lube that it can’t spin efficiently
Any input welcomed.

I have worked on a few sets of those and just like Moogoose said that is normal for a new freehub…..The lub that is inside them is actually not that viscus so its just that the freehub has to work it self in a bit..
