steve g Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 Hi, ive just given my bike a thorough scrub, and replaced my chain with the same again, whenever I pedal it makes a weird clicky noise, is this just the chain settling in as I don't remeber it doing this when i fitted my old one I'm 99% sure it is the chain that's making the noise.

Have you got the chain uber tight at the moment? That usually causes 'graunchy' type noises until it stretches (or you knock the tension off a little).

I loosened it quite abit and it still did it, im wondering if its because its a new chain on a worn sprocket if it doesn't stop soon a new sprocket may have to be the next step.

ghostrider88 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 oh my god you have another problem?it works almost always,in some cases you don have to buy a new one,just flip the one you have(because it´s worn form the one side and not the other),if this doesn´t work,new sprocket time.
