Rick Sanchez Posted February 18, 2016 Author Posted February 18, 2016 Just realised it could be my QR skewer.Will replace it with another one and see.Hoping it's the skewer, as the freehub seems to be in great condition
madbradd Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 is it 11 or 10 speed? apparently some of the 11 speed freebodies can get a bit of play between the cassette and the freehub.

maidenmole Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Recently discovered that my noise was the end cap on the d I've side rubbing against the rear derailleur hanger. Little bit of grease. Problem solved.
PregoRoll Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 I had this issue with my Easton hub,  after 1 wet ride I had a crunching noise in my freehub, stripped, cleaned and regreased and put it back, only to find it clicked. turned out to be 2 of the 3 pawls in the freehub were shot and had to be replaced.  Check that they release smoothly when pushed in and use a light durable grease to keep them quiet. If that doesnt work.....put new bearings inÂ
Rick Sanchez Posted February 18, 2016 Author Posted February 18, 2016 Definitely not the QR skewer as the bike is now even more noisy. Will try a new chain, as mine is old and needs replacing anyway. If that does not help I will strip the hub again and lube everything up
Rick Sanchez Posted February 18, 2016 Author Posted February 18, 2016 It's definitely coming from the wheel.Changed the chain, put a different derailleur on and changed the skewer.Will just take it to my LBS and have them ride it
ChunkyMonkey Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 C'mon guys, surely someone has had this issue before...I've cracked a Tune freebody before They are Superlight but under engineered..If prince, core move axle, if you have the Carbon axle... Check for cracksIf cracked...A new one is mucho ZAR...Good luck!

AlanD Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Perhaps it could be the spokes seeing as your checked everyrhing else.
