My bike stops working when it gets below freezing...

It is a shitty old 21 speed mountain bike that was hacked together from random parts. I bought it on craigslist for 20$. I plan on replacing it next month when I get paid.
My question is why it stops working when it is really cold outside.
Everything looks fine. It is just the back wheel refuses to spin when I move the pedals. The back gear assembly moves as it should but the wheel refuses to spin.
And this has only happened on nights that are well below freezing. I live in Oregon and this has happened four times. The bike works fine if it is above freezing.
