ALEX@BIKETRIALSFUN Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 (edited) May be the crank arm’s are hitting slightly hitting in one place on the chain stay. Edited June 3, 2007 by ALEX@BIKETRIALSFUN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylerlovesalex Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Crank could be hitting your magura pod? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pagie Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Chain may be out of line, i had this problem. The click is just the chain on the cogs when its forced into line. You will most probably need a shorter length bb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendrix Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 my mate gets this exact sound.Exept his bottom bracket is knackered...Try re- fitting it. Maybe a baring isn't in well =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Anscombe Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 (edited) hummmmm.......eye new bb..or cheaper version would be wack some more links in chain Edited June 4, 2007 by mrkoxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisboats Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 If its all new and you havn't put enough grease on the joining parts, it may just be rubbing when a lot of force is put on it.Thae it all out and regrease the bb cup threas, axles and crankbolts... as well as the pedal threads.

alex_jsy Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 My bike was doing this last weekend, all it needed was tightening up the bottom bracketWhat bottom bracket have you got on now then?If you're riding this weekend remind me to take a look at it if it isn't sorted by then!Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeperThanBlack Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Hi,Just bought new cranks bottom bracket and freewheel, but scence these have been put on my koxx seems to click whenever i cycle faster that normal riding.Can you Sugest anything to do Chears MattI also had this problem, it turned out to be serious. The bearings had fallen out of place and were clicking everytime i pedalled faster. At first I did not notice, and i phoned the shop I bought it from as I had only had it a couple of days. Turns out it was worse than i thought, and eventually the bearings got caught and the cranks didn't turn at all. If you spotted it early then tighten the cranks and BB. This should put them back in place. It doesn't hurt to try.Hope this helps!Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottmarks2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 happens very often when people think their getting a good deal on cheaper freewheelsoften people buy freewheels for the front when their designed to go on the back so theystart to go very quickly.But saying that , it could be a number of things check chain is right way on check its not your pedals that are going check all rubbing of cranks ect...scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
