Cranks turning when walking the bike can be an indication of a "snug" rear hub bearing, or of a not yet broken in hub in general. IGHs do have more internal drag then even a coaster hub does... The usual step is to service the bike with attention to hub axle adjustment and chain tension (or in reality, lack of tension). Checking our other IGH bikes to discover their cog drag might be interesting to help establish a base line. Andy
