Noise coming from kh20
 

I was riding my kh20 and I noticed a dinging noise coming from it (like
metal on metal). I checked the seat bolts, but that wasn't it, I also
checked to see if it was the seat string with the plastic tip hitting
the seat post. I'm not sure where it's coming from, I'm guessing maybe a
loose eye-let on the wheel, but other than that I don't know what could
be causing it.

I haven't had it that long, I guess a spoke may have gotten loose, I
haven't tightened any though.

If it isn't the spokes...
It could be the pedal, it could be loose, or if you have loose pins,
they can make a noise too.
Make sure everything is tightened. ;)

I think it's the pedals, I'll try tightening them up.

I was just going to post a thread on this exact topic. The same thing
has been happening to my KH 20. Now I don't need to bother posting a new
thread...in fact, this whole reply was pretty useless as well. Anywho,
thanks for the tips everybody.
