creaky crank/bb
Hi
Recently ive been experiancing a creaking/clicking noise as I cycle my mountain bike. Adjusting the Bottom Bracket bearings seemed to fix this for a few weeks then it would reappear. I decided to buy a sealed cartridge to replace the factory fitted bearings, this was OK for a while but I am now experiancing the same problems. The creaking noise seems to occur when I apply force to the pedals, so it happens twice a revolution. It usually occurs when going uphill but also happens after freewheeling down a gradient, when I start pedalling to to continue my speed as the momentum runs out. It only only occurs when pedaling. The only thing I can think it could be is the crank arms moving on the tapered squares, but this all seems pretty well tightened? Any Ideas would be appreciated as its a tad annoying and noisey! |
