  1. does he have trees for legs going that speed?
  2. it was the Free hub - grooves eaten away en something with unit made the creecking noise - replaced all good - still buying tools and looking at youtube vids to start servicing and checking my own bike also doing the course with yello saddle later this year
  3. good prices even better then buycycle - cheers
  4. I see BUY CYCLE is at times cheaper then CRC
  5. Can you only buy the park tool torque wrenches from CRC? I see they have two , a smaller one and a bigger one for the BB and casette
  6. http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/icetoolz-pronto-toolbox?quicktabs_1=1#quicktabs-1 maybe this one?
  7. Is it best to buy tool for tool or better to buy a toolset Any suggestions who to buy from ?
  8. its a Silverback Storm
  9. ok so instead of the LBS I will be buying tools from now on - thanks for all the info will be checking this evening on all the above possibilities
  10. dammm creeck im going to find it

  12. where do I get copperslip ?( excuse the ignorance )
  13. Shimano PD M520 Do I need a special grease or can I get from any HW shop?
  14. what do you do if it is the pedal axles - replace the pedals?
  15. more on the drive side
  16. defnitly in the mix here
  17. yes hardtail , the above two seem the most obvious maybe after checking the rest
  18. how do you eliminate this as a possibility , put new pedals in? Maybe take the pedals out and peddle on the arms to see if the noise persist?
  19. I assume opened cleaned , checked and should have picked up if it needs replacing ?
  20. By checking meaning undo , redo no lube here that could be disastrous
  21. I did undo redo it and was still there
  22. I know the seat does have a noise and the creecking noise I hear happens when I stand and peddle - so I don't think its the SEAT - although I need to lube it anyway. Maybe the crank bolts - will check that . If my BB was just serviced all that should be lubed and eliminates that as a possibility correct?
  23. I have this flippen creecking noise that I hear when I peddle . This started after I a major service at my LBS .Been fedup with them I took it to another shop after a long ride on the weekend from which the noise increased significantly . I though it may be the BB so I took it to another shop saying that I think its he BB I got it back and being in a hurry(not checking) took it home just to find the creecking noise is still there even though my BB was serviced . What else can it be ? I am getting gatvol of taking my bike to a bike shop just to get it back with the same issue . I don't want to take it back to any shop .Its like a doc they fix what they think it is and if it does not work ( and you have paid ) then they try something else. I want a mechanic that knows a bike and can look for a problem and fix it . It must be something to do with the BB or the arms of the front chainrings since this is where the noise comes from , but I cannot put my finger on it
